 * Hallo,
 * following your recommendations, I’d like to start modifying the CSS by myself.
   However, if I go into “appearance” and then select “Edit CSS” I get a just five
   lines of code:
    /* Welcome to Custom CSS!
 * To learn how this works, see [https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/](https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/)
   */
 * So I’d like to ask you, where can I start to simply modify for instance the font
   size and height of different page elements (e.g. the height of the title, the
   height of the size bar and so on).
 * Thanks,
 * Andrew

 * Always modify files in child theme or use custom css plugin.

 * Hi there,
 * First off, I do not recognize the following:
 *     ```
       /*
       Welcome to Custom CSS!
   
       To learn how this works, see http://wp.me/PEmnE-Bt
       */
       ```
   
 * Where is that from? Are you using a plugin? Are you using a child theme? Are 
   you using a WordPress.com Premium or WordPress.com Business account?
 * Second of all in order for you to learn CSS you need to learn how to use the 
   following [https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/](https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/)(
   if you use chrome)
 * IE and FF have the same thing built in. Learn how to use these and you will learn
   how to adjust everything in the theme you want.
 * I would love to point out where all of these items are but to be honest I do 
   not have the time. I get a ton of emails everyday from people asking how to adjust
   the CSS and I say the same thing to them.
 * I will only provide assistance IF the css that was shipped with WP-Forge is causing
   an issue of some kind. Wanting to change different things to your liking is NOT
   an issue caused by the css, it is more of a personal preference. The css that
   ships with WP-Forge is my personal preference.
 * Sorry, but I do hope this helps.

 * I am using Managed WordPress by Godaddy. Yes, I am trying to modify a child them,
   which I created by utilizing [https://it.wordpress.org/plugins/child-theme-configurator/](https://it.wordpress.org/plugins/child-theme-configurator/)
 * I know the tools and I am acutally looking for the CSS code to modify but I cannot
   find it either under Edit CSS or Editor in the Appearance menu.

 * Hi there,
 * The code will not be in those as they are blank.
 * You need to use the tools mentioned above to find the css and once you do, you
   go into those editors and write in the changes you want.
