Hello everyone who reads this,

I am building a website with the Vantage theme and using the Site Origin Editor for text. I would like to emphasize certain words in the content text, sometimes within a sentence, sometimes within a paragraph. I seem only to succeed in doing this by making a word bold or change the colour of it, not by enlarging the font size. Only when I make a new paragraph I succeed. Is there a way to change the font size within a sentence or a paragraph? Hope so, but if not: I can stop searching for it! Thanks in advance for replying.

    Hi MoMoed,

    Yes. Please install TinyMCE Advanced and then navigate to WP AdminSettingsTinyMCE Advanced and drop and drag the Font Size drop down to your toolbar and save. Now when you wish to increase the font size simply highlight the text you wish to increase the font size for or change the font size and type away.

    Hi Alex,

    Thank you so much! Works perfect! And I found some other possibilities as well.

    Kind regards, MoMoed

    Hi Alex,

    Busy playing with the font sizes now I sometimes just want to go back to the default size of b.e. head size 1: 22.
    That is something I don’t seem to manage since I can only choose between 20 or 24. I probably have done something wrong or am overseeing something. Can you help me out one more time?
    Thanks in advance,
    MoMoed

    I think I have found it: delete the lay out and you can start all over again with the default settings.

    Hi MoMoed,

    Glad you managed to figure it out. If it pops up again, let me know and I’ll take a look.

    Hi Alex,

    No idea if this reaches you since the thread is closed. But working with your suggestion I find something I don’t understand.
    I have included a link to the website which isn’t live yet, so I wonder if you can see this.

    https://www.family-flow.nl/base-flow/ouders-en-opvoeders/

    I’ll try to describe my problem:
    I have a paragraph with a title and no space between the title and text and a paragraph with a title and space in between (so technically these are 2 paragraphs). I want the title to be the same: the default font, 20, so like in head line 3) and bold.

    Like this:

    Bbbbbbbbbbb
    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
    Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

    Bbbbbbbbbbb

    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
    Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

    In the second example it’s simple: I set head line 3 for the title and 5 for the text block.
    In the first example I have to increase the font size of the text (head line 5) to 20 and I did so by the suggestion you gave me and let the font remain “font family”. I presumed it then automatically would be Helvetica neue, the default font I set. But I see a difference between the two titles in the used fonts. What is it I do wrong?

    Thanks very much for your help!
