    Good afternoon,

    How do I change the color of my site title and tagline? I tried using the background and color palette in WordPress but it is not allowing me to change the color. And my second question is, how do I change the font-size of my paragraph on my home page?

    Thanks so much for your help!

    Hi Susan-

    You’re right that the Florentine theme doesn’t have a direct control for the Site Title and Tagline color, they’re automatically generated to be a color that contrasts with your color palette.

    You can control these with Custom CSS. Navigate to Customize > Advanced > Custom JS & CSS and paste the following code into your Custom Theme CSS field:

    h1.site-title a { color: black !important; }
    h3.site-description { color: black !important; }
    

    Then, replace “black” with the color of your choice, either by name, hexcode, or rgb value, eg #000000 or rgb(0,0,0).

    Your font size can be changed without code. Navigate to Customize > Fonts > Main Text and drag the Font Size slider to your desired size.

    Thank you so much- that worked!  One other question, what should I enter to change the color of the menu (home, about me, blog, contact)?  I tried using .navbar-header but it didn’t work.  I thought I better ask so I don’t mess anything up!

    Thanks so much,

    Susan

    Hi Susan-

    Yes, this rule is a little more complicated to find the right selector. Here’s how to do it:

    .palette-primary .navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a {
        color: #993366;
    }

    Thank you!  A few more questions:

    Entering the CSS for the site title worked to change the color on the home page.  How can I also change the color of the title on the about me, blog, and contact pages (showing white)?

    Also, how can I change the color of the titles when I go to “Pages” .  The “about me” is black.

    How can I change the color of the contact form?

    When I pull up the contact form in the Chrome browser on my phone, the boxes are too long, is there a way to fix that?

    Thank you!

    Good morning,

    Is there a better theme that I can use with boldgrid where everything, including all colors, fonts, etc. everywhere on the site, are customizable?  I signed up for the post and page builder premium for $30.  While I like the Florentine theme a lot, I’d rather use one that is easier to customize.  Please give me some theme options where everything is customizable that I can use with the premium package that I purchased.

    Thanks so much for your help,

    Susan

    Hi Susan-

    Sorry that the rules I provided before only worked on the homepage, that was an oversight on my part.

    If you’re looking for maximum customizability, I’d highly recommend checking out the Crio Supertheme. It’s available in both free and premium versions, and both will let you customize the site title’s color independently.

    I checked out your site and it looks like you’ve started using a different theme and Contact Form 7. Here’s a guide I found on how to reduce the input box sizes using Contact Form 7

    Thanks so much!  I purchased the crio pro theme and I’ve installed it but do I need to enter another key to use it?  Wordpress shows “Crio” and there’s a link to upgrade to crio pro but I’ve already upgraded.

    Thanks for all of your help,

    Susan

    Hi Susan-

    This looks like a duplicate question from your other post here. Let’s pick up the conversation on that thread.
