Site Title size and color/row spacing on home page

HI,
I installed Google fonts to my Vantage Premium site to have a few more choices. I’m unable to change the size or color of the site title though. I’d like it larger and in black but can’t figure out how to get it that way.
I’d also like the rows to be tighter/closer together on the home page and can’t figure that our either.Waaah.
Thanks so much,
Kelly

    Hi Kelly McMaster

    You can fix/change this with some custom CSS. If you navigate to Appearance > Custom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    /* Site Title */
    
    header#masthead .hgroup h1 {
    	color: #666666;
    	font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
    	font-size: 36px;
    }
    

    Adjust the above as required.

    To adjust Page Builder row spacing, go to Settings > Page Builder > Layout > Row Bottom Margin. There is only a global setting at the moment.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi,
    I still can’t get the spacing between rows to change in Pagebuilder. Ugh.
    I added the CSS to try to change my site title font and color but don’t know which Typography heading to edit. Another ugh.
    My home page tab descriptors are too small too.
    When I’m editing things look they’ll look good but when I actually save and refresh, it’s still goofed up. Another big Ugh.
    Thanks for any tips you might have for me. I’m about ready to give up. I don’t have the resources right now to hire someone to do this junk for me but I need to be getting to selling things but I”m wasting so much time on site set up I might have to. :(

    Ok, step one:

    Go into the settings for WP Super Cache and delete the cache. Then de-activate that plugin. Developing with a caching plugin on isn’t ideal. You land up looking at cached results, not sure if your changes are reflecting etc. That most likely had a big role in your outcome so far.

    Site Title:
    I can’t see that CSS in your source. If you’ve inserted it at Appearance > Custom CSS it should resolve after sorting out the caching issue above.

    but don’t know which Typography heading to edit.

    Not quite following you there. The site title font can be set from Appearance > Customize > Theme Design > Fonts > Site Title Font. Apologies for the confusion. You can remove this line from the site title Custom CSS rule:

    	font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
    

    Custom CSS is only necessary for the site title to change the color or size.

    Let’s try work this one challenge. We’ll move on from there.
