    Hi, sorry but I’m really new at this. I haven’t installed and created a website all by myself before but I’ve participated in the process together with friends earlier so I know just briefly how to change some things by myself using css. Now to my problem. I purchased the beautiful Enfold theme and have started customising it using the layout builder. I imported the dummy data at first. But now I feel that there is a couple of things I would like to change within the css but I cant find where to edit this. Where to change the code? When I go to Enfold style.css in WP the only thing I see is this message:
    ” PLEASE DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE!
    *
    * This file is only in your themefolder for WordPress to recognize basic theme data like name and version
    * CSS Rules in this file will not be used by the theme.
    * Instead use the custom.css file that is located in your themes /css/ folder to add your styles.
    * You can copy a style rule from any of your css files and paste it in custom.css and
    * it will override the original style. If you just want to add small css snippets you might also
    * want to consider to add it to the designated CSS option field in your themes backend at: Theme Options->Styling”

    What am I missing?
    Do I need any other program to change the css? Is this done from my domainhosts site? Am I really stupid now? hahaha..
    Pls help to solve this problem. I so want to finish up my site and get it up and running.

    Thanks

    Hey Kristofer!

    You’ll never need or want to modify the theme css files. You can add your own to either the Themes Styling tab in the Quick CSS field or the custom.css file in the css folder of the theme files.

    You can also create a child theme and edit the style.css in that child theme which is typically the best option: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/using-a-child-theme/

    Hi Devin,
    wow you where quick. Thanks a lot for your answer! But where do I find “custom.css file in the css folder of the theme files”? I’m really sorry if my question seems really stupid but I just don’t seem to find it….

    Hi!

    You need to access the custom.css file via FTP or your cpanel. You can also use the Quick CSS field to modify certain elements on the theme.

    Cheers!

    Hey Ismael,
    thanks a lot for your answer. It helped me out. I found what I was looking for :)

    I have one more question and perhaps I can ask it here instead of creating new topic. I would like for the headlines in the textblocks to be set to “normal size” as default and to be able to change to “bold size” if needed. Is this possible? If I choose a special heading the H! is normal but not in text block?

    Thanks again.

    Regards
    Kris

    Yigit, you guys are great. Excellent service :)

    Thanks once again. I’m really happy that I purchased this theme.

    PS. I guess I can exclude a textblock if I want that to remain bold? D.s

    Hi!

    Yes, .avia_textblock class is to make sure that it is applied only on heading elements inside textblock. You can simply remove .avia_textblock class from the css code to apply it globally

    Best regards,
