Adjust site title size

    I just want to make my site tile larger. I’ve read dozens of other posts about this but adding all of the suggested lines of code into the additional CSS field have no effect. I’ve looked up how to remove the tags from the posts and after adding that code, it worked. I don’t know why the site title stuff just isn’t working for me

    I’ve also tried using the editor to edit the source code of the style sheet and no matter what I set the site title size to in the style sheet, there is no effect to my site.

    This shouldn’t be this hard. Doesn’t EVERYONE change the look size and color of their site title? [double face palm]

    I think I had a breakthrough. I’ve been using theme 2016. None of the suggested methods to change the site title and tag line size have worked. Upon a whim this morning, I changed theme to 2017 and, voila, the code worked. I guess it’s just a glitch in 2016. I still like 2016 better but not willing to keep experimenting to see if there is a workaround.

    If anyone knows how to enlarge site title in 2016, please let me know.

    @stevecorwin,
    what is the URL of your site? We can’t help you if we can’t see your site and what theme you are using.

    When I get home I’ll reply with url. Right now site shows “coming soon”. I’m not finished yet but I’ll go ahead and launch it so people can get a better picture of the questions I ask.

    @stevecorwin,
    try using the following CSS for the twentysixteen theme

    h1.site-title a {
	font-size: 66px;
}

    Of course change the size to suit your needs. Also check that you are not seeing a cached version of the page. Clear browser and server caches if needed.

    @alichani
    The url of my site is https://bridgetales.com/

    The question is kind of moot now since I switched themes and the code to change site title font size works on this one.

    When I get a moment, I will switch back to 2016 and try code suggested. I’ll comment back with results. Thanks

    I tried putting the code you suggested. No change.
