    I want to change my font to Verdana, but I’m not sure how.
    This is what it says in my theme editor:
    body {
    background: #3D4345 url(images/back.png) 0 repeat;
    color: #51544B;
    text-align: center;
    font-family: “Trebuchet MS”, Trebuchet MS, Trebuchet MS;
    font-size: 15px;
    padding:0px;
    min-height: 100%;
    _height: 100%;
    }

    I tried thanging the font-family but that doesn’t seem to work.
    can anyone help me?

  • If you’re editing the style.css inside WordPress, make sure that the file is writable and being saved.

    Font-family is the correct value to change, but even if you set that for one element, a later declaration may override it. Take a look at the CSS-related links here: Know Your Source

    I looked at all of that info, and I don’t understand half of it. So I went into my theme editor and looked to see where else there was a font-family and changed those to see what changes on my website: nothing changes the content of the website, just the menu bars, etc.
    ??

    Use control+F to find ALL “Trebuchet”s. It’s probably in your css for the index, the header, the footer, the sidebar, comments, etc.

    I think it is this one:

    .post h2 {
    margin: 0 0;
    padding: 5px 0px 0px 10px;
    height:30px;
    background: transparent;
    text-align: left;
    font: 24px “Century gothic”, Arial, sans-serif;
    font-weight:normal;

    ..or it could be the one before it.
    Not quite sure. Sometimes I just play around with stuff if I’m not sure until something works. ??
