I am using the Education theme, and though I've canned the style.css thoroughly, and made many changes in various locations of font size, nothing I do seems to increase the size of the font in the right column of my site.
Would someone be kind enough to point me to the section in the CSS that refers to the text size in my primary navigation column.
Thanks very much.

I'm finding the primary navigation column text to be too small.
Cheers.

Looking for help with my CSS in the forum, as opposed to an outside source.
January 29, 2016 at 9:20 pm #177882Brad DaltonParticipantI added the CSS to my tutorial which i linked to above which enables you to change the font size of the primary nav menu links. Is that not what you want?
January 29, 2016 at 9:43 pm #177885willyrParticipantConfused is what I am. Sorry. I'm not seeing it.
All I need to know is where in the CSS for the Education theme is the text size code for the primary navigation.
As noted earlier, I made changes in the text size for every field in the CSS that I could find, made a dramatic size change in each one at a time, uploaded the modified CSS one change at a time, hard refreshed the page, and could not see any change on the site. Changed the CSS back to the original, moved on to the next spot in the CSS that referred to text size, and changed that, and so on and I have not been able to make a change in the size of the text in the primary navigation despite my best efforts.
Thanks.

Added this code to the bottom of the style sheet:
.menu-primary a {
font-size: 30px;
}It made no change in the presentation of the page after I uploaded the style.css file, even after refreshing the page several times.
I would have thought that a change in the font-size in this following part of the code would have done it, but it doesn't either.
.menu-primary,
.menu-secondary {
clear: both;
color: #fff;
font-size: 14px;
margin: -15px auto 20px;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
}What I find interesting is that it's calling for text color to be WHITE, I think, yet on the page page, the navigation column text is blue and underlined, so I guess I'm still not in the right area.
Anyway, thanks again. Still working on it.
