You can alter anything you wish in the theme you are using. if you are using one of the themes that supports overlays then you want to look in the appropriate overlay file.

As always though we do recommend that you do not make changes to a pre-supplied theme but make your own unique copy to save it from being overwritten on future updates.

I am using the default theme. Does it support overlays? I am not a pro, so I need a little bit more help 🙂

It will tell you what you are using on the sp forum admin > themes panel – both theme and overlay are shown.

Thanks, I found that area. But is it possible for you to send me the settings you made in these overlay lines for this forum? The fonts here are exactly that what I want but, you can look at my actual forum at: www.wparea.de/forum In this moment they are too small. My email: info(at)wparea.de

This forum is using the ‘default’ theme with the ‘cool-blue’ overlay – as it comes out of the box.

Any differences you see will be the influence of your WP theme which will set the content font. You can see the default settings for the font in the overlay file are to inherit from the WP theme. if you want to change that then this is where you specify what you prefer.

I had this same problem and thanks for the instruction on where to increase the font size. but now I have a new question: You said that this forum is using the default theme with the cool-blue overlay. I selected the same but my forum looks nothing like this. Not only the colors are different (no reds) but I don’t have the same breadcrumb look, the little “thought bubble” look to the individual posts and other elements. I like these on this forum . . . and would like to use them on my forum. What am I missing?

thanks

Look at the date on the post… its quite old… When it was written, that was the case… but we have since changed wp themes and also created a new custom sp theme…

the breadcrumbs are custom css for this site… do a search for a topic on them as we walked folks through how to create them…
