 * Hiya
 * I’m using the plugin on version 5.6.1.
    The text and general size are very small,
   probably due to the theme I’m using (Kale). I am therefore trying to change the
   layout and styling. However, changing the CSS properties in the normal way is
   not working. I saw your reply to kenny0613 regarding “traversing the html elements
   from the containing element” and would like to give this a shot. Could you provide
   any further details on how to achieve this for the less skilled users out there(
   such as myself)? Thanks

 * Hey [@brendanm1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/brendanm1/)
 * I took a look at your page and can see the theme you are using is using bootstrap
   CSS and they are setting the base html font-size to 10px. This plugin assumes
   that value would be set to a standard 16px. My goal is to eventually make this
   more consistent throughout different themes but it will take some time.
 * In the meantime all you would need to do is set your html font-size to 16px in
   your document head to override what bootstrap is doing:
 *     ```
       <style>
       html {
       	font-size: 16px;
       }
       </style>
       ```
