Problem with first letter colour

[Chris]

I am having a problem with the first letter colours on my site. I need to set the site header first letter colour as white, but this affects page and post titles and makes them invisible on a white background. How can I solve this?

I found an old post on this subject suggesting some custom css but it didn’t work for me.

Site is here: www.cvrp.co.uk – you can see that the site title looks good but that first letters of all post and page titles have disappeared.

Apolgies – posted on wrong forum – theme is Gravida.

Hi Chris,

Kindly go to Appearance>>Customize>>Basic>>Custom CSS Box

Add this code there:

h1.postitle::first-letter, .single_post_content h1::first-letter, h2.postitle::first-letter{color:#494949 !important;}

Regards,
Brad

Just done that Brad – Doesn’t work for me.

The whole font/typography thing is pretty complex. It seems that post and page titles are both h1, but pages have a different class. This means that post and page titles show as different font: On posts it uses the default ‘Oswald’ font, but on pages it inherits the ‘Josefin Sans’ font used for the site title – very confusing.

Could I send you a pm so you can log in and take a look for me?

Hi Brad – Thanks for that.

Strangely, the header appears white in all browsers, but there are some anomalies with the page/post titles. In Chrome they appear a shade of green, but in Safari they appear black.

One more question – I can’t find a way to set the same font for the page and post titles. You’ll see that they are different at the moment. Do they not both take the font specified in ‘h1’?

Hi Brad – The colour issue has fixed itself. I think it was a cache issue – my apologies.

The font is still different for posts and pages though – screenshots:

Thanks for that Brad – Much appreciated. Was the issue something I need to look out for when making changes to the fonts in future if I need to?
