    Hi,

    I have Apex Pro. I would be grateful for your help with a couple of things please?

    How can I increase the widget title text size and also the text size of links to other pages please (top left hand side of my front page)?

    I post poems usually with a picture above them. I would like to post them as excerpts with the picture showing and then the first few (say 4) lines of the poem but still formatted as the poem. Is this possible? With the default excerpt I just get text and it looks like unformatted text, i.e. not in the structure of a poem.

    My site is https://www.thebrightnessofthesedays.com

    Thanks,
    Nicole

    Hi Nicole,

    Sure, you can use the following CSS to address both the font size changes:

    .menu-primary a {
  font-size: 16px;
}
.widget .widget-title {
  font-size: 18px;
}

    Copy & paste the code above into the “Custom CSS” section in the Customizer (Appearance > Customize), and it should take affect right away.

    The “16” and “18” values can be increased to further increase the size of the menu items and widget titles (respectively).

    As for maintaining the poem formatting, check out the second section in this tutorial: https://www.competethemes.com/help/change-excerpt-length-apex/

    That will show you how you can insert a “read more tag” to define an excerpt. This will allow you to create the same excerpt, but also maintain the formatting.
