They are separated for desktop and mobile device displays. You can set up mobile width breakpoint, text-align, font size, color, spacing, and others.

Set up website typography

Usually, one of the first steps after WordPress and theme installation is customization. You can choose from many Google Fonts. Typography settings in WordPress are under the Appearance → Customize → Appearance → Typography. Choose Titles and Body Text font. You can also select font thickness for Titles. Keep in mind that the whole website should be a pleasant environment to keep visitors as long as possible. Therefore some standards need to be followed.

  1. Ich finde es furchtbar das nicht mal auf Fragen die mit der Software oder anscheinend Fehler beim Update zu tun haben, keine kostenlosen Service gibt. Hallo eventuell kennt sich jemand mit Aitthemes aus! Leider ist der Kundenservice sehr schlecht zu erreichen. Ich habe das Directory Pro Themes und jetzt kann ich meine Seitenleisten und Footer nicht mehr bearbeiten. Ist nicht mehr im Dashboard zu finden! Sehr eigenartig, kann mir jemand helfen, was habe ich falsch gemacht?
