Is there any way to change the size of the text for categories? On my template the categories are hard to read because they're too small.

Hello,

I wanted to let you know that I am checking with our engineers to find out if/how this is possible. I will post back here once I have heard back from them.

Regards,
Nathan

Hello,

In order to make this change, please go to "Stores" --> "Template Editor" --> "Advanced" --> check the box for "Enable Advanced Mode" --> select "Edit CSS" and then select the "skins/purple/style.css" file --> then locate the following code and change the "11" to the font size you would like. The code currently looks like this:

#LeftNav .Categories ul li a {
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #FF7EBA;
}

Regards,
Nathan

Hi and thanks for addressing this for me, but my skins/purple/style.css file code does not look like what you show here. It doesn't say anything about font size. The only number higher than a 0 is number 11, so I changed it to 18 but that didn't make any difference in the font size at all.

Oops, sorry ... it does say

font-size: 11px;

That 11 is what I changed. I tried changing it to 14, 16, and 18 but nothing happened, even after saving and previewing.

Hello,

This file contains the code "font-size: 11px;" many times. In order to make this change you will need to change the font size in the correct instance within the file. The specific area of the file where you need to make this change will look exactly like this:

#LeftNav .Categories ul li a {
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #FF7EBA;
}

Please let us know should you continue to have trouble with this.

Regards,
Nathan

Thank you thank you thank you! I was in error before ... I didn't realize how LONG the code is, I only saw the first segment (which had an 11 in it) and thought that was the end of it. I used the down arrow on the right side of that window and it just stopped like there was no more. BUT then I used the mouse's scroll wheel and saw everything else! I finally found the spot you told me to look for, changed it to 14, and it worked perfectly. (I'll have to learn CSS someday.)

Looks fantastic now.
