Tag Font Size

Hi there,

Here is a CSS snippet you can use to make all the tags the same font size:

.tagcloud a {
  font-size: 12px !important;
}

Please copy and paste that code into the Additional CSS section in the Live Customizer (Appearance > Customize), and it will take effect right away.

Thanks Ben. The Tag font sizes all display the same now…

What setting was used to make that one Tag font size so large ??
I would be okay with that being changed to something a little bigger … just not so large. It not I’ll just leave well enough alone.

Thanks again.

This is something that WordPress does on its own with the tag cloud widget. The idea is that the more a tag is used, the larger it is. I’m guessing all the tags were used once, and the large one was used a couple of times, so it created an odd effect.

If you want to make all the tags bigger, that’s pretty easy to do. I used 12px as the size in my code snippet, but it might look better with 14px or even 16px:

.tagcloud a {
  font-size: 14px !important;
}

Thanks Ben :D… that explains it. I’ll just leave things as they are for now.

IMHO fonts getting increasingly enlarged in such a narrow column distracts instead of enhances… IMHO the use of a cloud widget here is not a good fit.

Yea I think you’re right. I would probably change it if I could go back, but I have to leave it as-is now because I don’t want to change it for everyone in an update (some people may like the way it looks). That’s why I’m here with CSS snippets when needed ??
