Title: change font size in block
Post by: gordo52 on July 21, 2017, 12:28:19 PM
hi

just installed tp on smf 2.14 using theme Lovetheme.   this is my test site trying to iron out any creases until I go public.

it will be used mostly for articles, I wish to show a list of previous articles in the block using Article in cat. my trouble is the font size in the block is way to small.  so far have not found where to increase the size.

any signposts to the correct file would be appreciated

And you want the text (links) in the left "Previous"-block a little bit bigger?!

Then search your theme and find the file index.css and open it.

Add

#block8 .middletext { font-size: 14px; }

"block8" is the ID of that block.
