Hi John,

Many Thanks for taking the time to reply and offer assistance. Unfortunately a debug tool will not help in this instance.
Some external function, possibly an upgrade to WordPress but that is only a guess, has DELETED all the images (in this case thumbnails) in my PRODUCT CATEGORIES. The event is past and I cannot recreate it. If you think the Debug tool could be installed and help when the next Upgrade arrives let me know. Take a look at the site (below). There should be images above the text of Mugs, T-Shirts etc.

Hi Christom,

This is just an update as I am leaving this matter for now or for good. Yes you can see the labels now but that is (I think) because I changed the to a lighter (ivory) background. I know the code you reviewed is working because when I changed the font size I could see the change immediately. However when I substituted with font-weight:bold I saw no difference. I even tried bolder instead of bold. No difference. Perhaps these labels are already as bold as they can get.

Thanks for taking an interest.

Hi Christom,

Hope you do not mind giving this another try. The code that was not working yesterday has made an impact. I was able to understand that I was missing a right handed bracket from another group of code (that preceded this new code). Once I corrected that situation I was able to see an impact on the variation labels when the font-size command was used however when I replaced this with font-weight:bold!important I saw no effect on the labels

Hi Chris,

I have replaced my background with something that contrasts better with the existing WooCommerce text. However I still think there should be a solution to enancing ALL of the text and labels throughout WooCommerce as I cannot be the first to use a patterned background. So while I have put this matter on the back burner, I hope to return to the problem later. In the meantime I do appreciate your help; I really do!

Best Wishes.

Hi Chris,

I appreciate that you are still with me on this matter. I have read your reply but as I said previously i am not a wordpress or HTML programmer. I do not understand what labels you are talking about. I would not blame you if you backed out of this matter; I think I need to modify the background image so that the woocommerce text can be read.

Who won the last test match? I do not remember as I am more of a football fan!

I do not think so. My 4 active plugins are:
Jet Pack, Mojo Marketplace, Regenerate Thumbnails and WooCommerce.

What do you mean when you say you cannot see this code on your end? Are you examining the web site itself?

I really appreciater you taking the time. I’m popping upstairs (from my home office) but will check back soon. Time for a sundowner. LOL.

Hi Christom,

Again my thanks for your help. The following is everything i have in the Custom CSS area: The first part of this is code that “installs” the custom background I am using. The second part is the code I copied from another posts plus your modification. The question ios can you see anything that is “upsetting” the td label logic (which starts with .woocommerce)?

#wrapper {
background: transparent !important;
}

body {
background-image: url(‘https://sublime-images.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/DamaskblueMask.jpg’);
background-position: top center;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;
}

#footer {
background: transparent !important;
}

.footer-wrap {
background: transparent !important;
border-radius: 30px! important;
}

#top {
background: transparent !important;
border-radius: 30px;

.woocommerce div.product form.cart .variations td.label, .woocommerce #content div.product form.cart .variations td.label, .woocommerce-page div.product form.cart .variations td.label, .woocommerce-page #content div.product form.cart .variations td.label {
font-weight: bold !important;
}

I see your weaher situation is pretty good. We were at -10 centigrade today!

Hi Christom,

Many Thanks for your help. I added the !important as you suggested but without success. Could you review the original code I copied form elsewhere to see if the syntsx is okay. I am entirely new to WordPress though an ex COBOL programmer (LOL).

You did the trick and i really appreciate your time/help. I changed the font size, colour and aligned the text. It was a small matter (no pun intended) but became a bit of an obsession. This I trust will be my last request:

If you click on the link you will see tha my modifications have changed not just the paragraph I needed to change but also the phrase above i.e. British Giftware and also the line at the bottom of the page – all coloured red. How do I restrict the changes to the text I want to change. I tried p1 and p2 but this did not work. As it is I have accomplished what I needed to do, so the answer to this is not too important; it just seems to be the final clue. Again Many Thanks.

Sorry to come back on this. I have “moved” the phrase “You must be Registered and Signed In to view our products. Read our Home page and/or Contact Us” to be a seperate text line. See it under the banner on this page:

https://greatbritgifts.com/product-categories/

But now it is too small to be noticed. LOL. I have played around with CSS settings to modify the text (and sucessfully) BUT my settings have affected other parts of the web site. So what I am asking is there a way to apply the CSS modifications but only to the text on my Product Categories page.

Thanking you in adavance.

Hi Jason,

Well it took a while – 1 week – but my Service Provider came through and increased the max_input_vars to 6000 and we have been humming along pretty good ever since (see below). Your input helped me articulate the problem sucessfully. Many Thanks.

looks like you were missing the call from the .htaccess file to your php.ini file, so I added the following to your .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_suphp.c>
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/dmhall
<Files php.ini>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
</IfModule>

Your max_input_vars were successfully increased.

Hi,

Well I know you are right. It was only a cosmetic change so no big deal.

Many Thanks for trying to help.

Hi d4z_c0nf,

First let me thank you for taking the trouble to help. That was an interesting link you sent me but unfortunately it will not help on this occassion. Good for First-Line, First-Letter etc. Trouble is I want a portion of the first line. However you did say “if you don’t have any tag to use for matching part of the text”. Can you explain in detail what you mean by tag. Bear in mind I am not a programmer of any sort though I did write a lot of COBOL programs at one time. LOL.

Hi,

I have a different problem. My Product Categories page has the following text:

Product Categories – You must be Registered and Signed In to view our products. Read our Home page and/or Contact Us

I want to reduce the size of the font for the portion of the text that follows the dash sign. Can this be done via the Custom CSS facility and without updating the HTML code?

I have read a lot about making changes via CSS but not to cover this specific issue. Many Thanks.
