Sidebar Redux Question

[Former Member]

Is there a way to change the font style and font size with this plugin?

Thank you..

Are you wanting to know about changing font-family & size in the content you type into the content box?

HTML is supported in the content areas of the plugin, so you would use any method applicable to HTML elements to achieve this.

The lazy way is to use font HTML tags or inline CSS.

This half of the sentence is normal, but <span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS;">this half uses Comic Sans as its font.</span> Never use Comic Sans.

The more professional way to do it is to add CSS to the end of Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > Style Sheet on your theme to target specific sidebar containers or elements within the sidebar. For example, if you gave the ID sidebar-1 to one of your containers you would change the font properties of its contents using this:

#sidebar-1 > .content {
    font-family: Verdana, Arial;
    font-size: 13px;
}

You can also change the font size of all sidebar containers at once, but to keep things less complicated I won't go into detail about that unless you describe that as exactly what you're looking to do.
