How to edit blog excerpts font, size, and color

  • Hi everyone ??

    I’m trying to edit my blog page excerpts or content that end with “Read more” which I recently was able to add at the end. However, I’m trying to figure out how to edit the content before the “Read more”. It looks grey and dull.

    I would also like to be able to change the “Read more” red font color as well. I would greatly appreciate anyone’s help on this. Thank you in advance.

  • I think you have inline css in excerpt:
    So try with this:

    <span style=”font-family: Open Sans,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;”>

    add class like read-more to strong like this:
    <strong class=”read-more”>Read more
    in css add:
    .read-more { color: #f00;}

    let me know if you have any other query.
    Thanks

    Thank you Ahir. So I just insert this code in my style.css somewhere?

    This code in style.css:

    .read-more { color: #f00;}
    Have you created child theme ?
    see this for more idea: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes

    which theme you are using ?
    you have this code at the moment: <span style=”color: #000000; font-size: 14pt; font-family: Georgia, Palatino;”>
    replace with below:
    <span style=”font-family: Open Sans,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;”>

    Thanks

    Thank you for your help and patience Ahir. I’m using the theme Sydney. And honestly I don’t think I have created a child theme yet. I have no idea how to create one. As you can tell I’m rather new using wordpress, yet I’m determined to learn.

    I’m currently searching for that code in my style.css to edit the fonts in my blog content.

    Hey

    Your site is not working at the moment, blank page
