In reply to: [Enigma] font changeIf it is a websafe font, add the following to your child theme’s style.css or to the style.css of the main theme.
.logo p {
font-family: ‘Cambria’, sans-serif;
margin-top: 5px;
color: #fff;
}I placed ‘Cambria’ in where the original code had ‘Open Sans’
So change the font name in the .logo p selector and add any additional changes you might need within the selector.
Does that solve your problem? Let me know if it needs a bit more tuning, and advise further. Cheers!
Glad it worked out for you and you’re welcome! Good luck with your projects ??

In reply to: Not sure what to do next..I would definitely create a child theme right away. This allows you to customize your theme and save your customizations if you switch to another theme. It also gives you the ability to extend the functionality of your theme. You can use the “one click child theme” plugin to do this, although there are other ways to create a child theme as well.
It sounds like you are going to have a mix of pages as well as posts, and you want the readability to be high. It is common typography practice to pick two fonts, one each of the following: sans/sans, serif/sans, serif/serif, cursive/cursive, cursive/sans, or cursive/serif. Installing Easy Google Fonts will allow you really good control over your typefaces.
What other questions do you have?Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Maskitto Light] Google Fonts and CSSMy mistake. I will attempt to describe the process in more detail.

In reply to: Animated Slide-In Text PluginI think I found you a solution.
In the WordPress plugin repository, there is a plugin called Animate it!
One you have installed the plugin, activated the plugin, and are ready to create a post, you will find in the toolbar of the text box an icon to animate your post entry / page entry. It looks like a pencil with an asterisk nearby and should display the tooltip “Animate It!” with mouseover.I tested the plugin and the “InfiniteIn” option performs the animation that you are trying to achieve. If you need help setting it up I would be happy to help you. Does it work for you?

In reply to: [Maskitto Light] Google Fonts and CSSIf you want to send me an email I would be happy to Skype in with you and help you resolve your problem with the fonts.
If you are trying to place the header logo more in line with the navigation menu, this code might work for you:
img.attachment-51 {
max-width: 250px;
max-height: 100px;
position: absolute;
top: -45px;
left: 0px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;

I would use animate.css – had you thought of that solution? Also, how is the search coming along for a solution? Please advise.

In reply to: [Maskitto Light] Google Fonts and CSSAbsolutely. In your child theme, edit your styles.css
Add simliar tags to the following:
h1 {
font-family: Verdana
}You want to use a child theme exactly because it is the one that WordPress will decide to use over the parent theme, and you also get to keep your customizations if you switch to a different parent theme.
Alternatively, you can use an excellent plugin that I highly recommend, Easy Google Fonts. It allows you to change the font of each of the HTML elements you mentioned.
Are you still having difficulty? Please advise.

In reply to: Not sure what to do next..What kind of site are you trying to build? Have you solved your problem yet? Please advise.
Glad to hear that it worked for you! The advantage of child themes generally is that the CSS and script of the child theme takes priority over the styling found in the parent theme, so you can customize your site without affecting core functionality of your site, and also you can update the parent theme without affecting the modifications you made to the child theme.
Are you trying to scale everything in the header area down by a percentage?
Perhaps placing this code in the styles.css file of your child theme will help. Place it at the very bottom of the code so that it receives priority. Let me know if that works and I will help your size issue also.
h2.span7.inside.site-description {
padding-top:30px;
}Have you solved this problem yet? Please advise if you are using a child theme, and which .css file you are editing using the code editor.
