bbPress Version 2.6.5 <

WordPress 5.4.2

Among other instructions I used bbPress Styling Crib (https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-styling-crib/). I copied bbpress.css into the wp-content/themes/%your-theme%/css/ folder as directed in the Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 2 (https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum-part-2/).

The bottom line is that I changed every “font-size:” tag in bbpress.css (and there are 40) trying to have SOME effect. Nothing.

The tiny text makes the forum unusable. Changing the font size, from much of what I’ve read, is simple.

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks in advance

ok, now in – nice site by the way !

Not sure why changing in bbpress had no effect – I can’t see your theme is doing anything.

my first suggestion would be to install

bbp style pack

and once installed go into

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forums index styling

and set some of those to a larger font – just start with 1 or 2 and see if they work.

If so you can work though the rest to get what you want.

If not come back, BUT leave a couple in place and tell me a couple you have changed.

I can then look at what is being downloaded to my browser and maybe help further

[Mike8857]

bbp style pack is the solution. There are sooooo many settings, I used setting colors to identify the particular parameter for this issue. Documentation is very comprehensive but for a NooB like me, this was still a challenge.

Thank you for your promptness.
Problem solved.

BTW, the solution to the fonts in the topics and replies being too small was the Topic/Reply Display tab.
Again, thanks.

great – glad you are fixed
