    Hi, I have been doing research online to find the answer. But, I was not able to find an answer to my question.

    My website is
    https://www.luciddreamingtechniques.com

    I want to change the font in the header to arial to make it look better.

    Does anybody know how to do this.

    I appreciate the help.

  • This is a tiny css change. Go to appearance –> editor and then find stylesheet (style.css) According to firebug it should be line 90.

    h1 {
        font: 45px arial;
        text-align: center;
    }

    The h1 refers to “heading 1” which means it’s the biggest and most prominent for SEO.

    Thank you. I will try that. I figured that if I knew what it was it would be a quick fix.

    Sure! Let me know if it works out for you.

    It looks as though the text

    is currently displaying in the Arial font.

    Are you trying to also change the tagline?

    I was trying to change it to arial. I thought arial looked different. Maybe I was thinking of courier. I wanted something that was more smooth. So, you answered my question. I guess I have it figured out. Now I just have to find the right font. Thank you.
