    This page is a good example

    http://concrew-training.co.uk/courses/feedback-for-learning

    Headings H2, H3, H4 are a particular problem.

    Bullets standout more than paragraph text but I am unable to find a way to edit/change

    The lack of consistency across the font size makes for a visually weak page. On many other pages I avoided headings and just used bold font but this too is less than ideal

    Sorry please look at another link. I spent a lot longer on the page above and managed to get it to look better but the same problems applied. This page is a better example

    posting code didnt seem to work

    Thread Starter Elektra

    (@mr_ian)

    I cant post the whole page code – doesnt work look at these lines for example

    <h3><small><span style="color: #333333;">Content</span></small></h3>
    <h4><small><span style="color: #333333;">1. Current Practice and Understanding</span></small></h4>

    but to me the the line coding doesn’t seem to be the source of the problem it seems to be more about how and where the WR pagebuilder is picking up and using the style sheet data. WR Page builder doesnt seem to be accurately reproducing the fonts size variables set within the theme or rather it appears to be overriding these with different code.

    @mr_ian Please do not post code that way. After 10 lines it becomes unmanageable.

    If you need to post code then please use pastebin.com instead and post a link to that paste.

    hi Mr_lan,

    Thank you for the reply, the code on the tag <h3><h4> is for the color of the texts. the plugin added the inline style to the elements because you adjusted the text via the visual editor

    Hi Tony

    thank you for trying to help but I don’t think I have explained the problem properly. I don’t think the visual editor in WR pagebuilder is working properly.

    I can set the font size and line spacing within the theme for text and headings. These changes should apply to all pages. They do for text that is not adjustable by WR PB eg page headings

    The problem is these font size changes dont appear to feed through into WR PB properly.

    When I make changes to the font size in the theme these changes do show up in the drown down box in the visual editor for paragraph, heading 1, heading 2 etc.

    BUT The changes dont appear to be happening on the text previously created in WR PB

    NOR do they work the way i would expect them to in the visual editor.

    If I paste in plain text and then apply say an H3 Heading, to some text, by using the the drip down box in the visual editor the font size charge that results does not match the size I have set for the H3 heading size within the theme settings nor does it match the look and style I see in the drop down box itself.

    This applies to all Heading settings

    The font size is much larger.

    If I highlight the heading and click on “Format Small” and then preview in the visual editor the font changes size and colour in degrees of greyness in the preview screen.

    Keeping the same text highlighted each time I click on the “Format Text” then the preview screen the font changes in either size or look.

    I have to keep highlighting and clicking until I see something that looks ok in the visual editor.

    but then what I see in the preview screen but the preview screen doesn’t match the final version I see in the browser.

    hi Mr_Ian,

    Thank you for the detail explanation. I have just got your problems more clearly, let me re-install the wr page builder and retest, Just wait me for a while and i will come back as soon as possible

    Sincerely,
    Tony

    hi Mr_Ian,

    You can take a look at the screencast here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bw1bLL_NUDczZHRQS1E5YmxFeHM/edit?usp=drivesdk

    I have tried adding H1 and H2 , and color it in red and green. How is it going on your site?

    Sincerely,

    Hi Tony

    I have been experimenting with this page. I can change colour ok

    http://concrew-training.co.uk/courses/feedback-for-learning

    I can change the font colour in the text editor and it shows in the preview screen

    Changes made in the theme settings to the global font style, ie main text, carry over into the text editor, the preview screen and the web site

    When I make changes to the headings the changes appears in the text editor drop down boxes and the text edit screen BUT NOT in the preview window. Secondly they do not upload to the web site

    On the page linked to above

    H1 = Feedback for Improved Learning Training Course
    (Roboto 20px)

    H2 = The appproaches that deliver enhanced student progression
    H2 = Content
    (Roboto 16px)

    H3 = For Whom
    H3 = Workshop Aims and Objectives ( red font)
    ( Roboto 7px !!)

    I have set the font size for H3 very small ie 7px to show the problem

    Also the bullet points look to be in black font whilst the rest is in grey.

    I do not have any colour codes set other than the red above and none show in the html. The only html code round the headings is the <h2> <h3> etc

    Thread Starter Elektra

    (@mr_ian)

    all the headings below content are in H3 too

    standard font is set to Ubunto 15px

    hi Mr_lan,

    I have tried rechecking the text element by using your site paragraph with h3 and h2. You can take a watch here:
    https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bw1bLL_NUDczRVFEZ0NYZThYTGc/edit?usp=drivesdk

    You can try putting the code below into Custom Css tab of wr pagge builder, and change 16px to which size you prefer

    h1 {
       font-size: 16px!important;
     }
    h2 {
       font-size: 16px!important;
     }
    h3 {
       font-size: 16px!important;
    }

    Sincerely,
    Tony

    Hi Tony

    Many thanks for your help, I have reported it as a bug again. But hopefully being clearer in what I was saying now.

    Yes in your video all looks to work, as it does at first look when I do it but the styles set in the theme don’t appear to be being picked up for the headings in WPPB

    I tried adding in the custom code but this didnt work either

    I have reverted back to paragraph text with bold and will wait to see if the next software release addresses it

    Once again many thanks for your help

    Ian
