Changing font size of Archive title (category title of page of posts)

BB Theme

Howdy!

I have a archive page of posts from a specific category and I’m trying to change the category title font size.

The skin CSS has it set to 18px using the .fl-archive .fl-archive-title class. I’m using the My Custom CSS plugin (as, really, who can use the one in the customizer - it’s tiny!) and I can get it to change BUT I have to use !important in the declaration, which just seems…wrong. Several other CSS customizations require !important as well.

Am I missing something or is this how I have to do it?

Hey Keith,

Do you mind sharing the URL of the site in question so I can take a look?

Hey Keith,

Do you mind applying your CSS to the site so I can see why it’s not working?

I have - it’s in the My Custom CSS section. If you look there you’ll notice quite a few properties have !important as they wouldn’t work without it.

Hey Keith,

It seems the plugin you’re using to apply custom CSS isn’t loaded as a priority. If you target the same classes and apply the same styling but place it on your child theme’s style.css file, it works without declaring them important.

If you prefer using the custom CSS plugin, just place another CSS selector so you get a higher specificity, e.g., .fl-archive .fl-archive-title becomes .fl-page .fl-archive .fl-archive-title.

Hope this helps!

Ben
