Please Help: How do I add my own CSS that can be referenced in every post by all authors?

    2 Questions:

    1) I want to add some CSS codes such as: 

    <style type="text/css">
    
.style1 { font-size: 30px; }
    
.style2 { color: #00FF00; font-size: 15px; }
    
</style>

    In such a way that I can reference them in each and every post where ever I require.

    Ex: I want to use <span class=”style1″> Text here, </style1>

    Also, if I want to change the appearance of some features for all the posts.. (entire website)

    Ex: I want all the Headings to be of 20px in all the posts…

    PS: I have activated Child Theme and I know there is a style.css file in there.. And I googled it too but couldn’t find a ‘easy’ answer!!

    😀 .

    Can I write direct CSS codes or should I learn PHP for this?

    2) Can anyone please tell me how do you get to know as soon as someone has posted a question? In future, if I want to help someone; how do I know that someone is seeking help??

    Thanks in Advance.

    1. Just add the code to child-theme style.css and use that class anywhere you want. But the syntax is

    <span class="style1">Some text</span> not <span class="style1"> Text here, </style1>

    Quote:
    I want all the Headings to be of 20px in all the posts…

    .entry-title {
    
font-size: 20px !important;
    
}

    Use firebug to inspect elements.

    Learning PHP is not necessary to tweak the appearance which can be achieved using CSS alone. But learning PHP gives you greater power to change theme/WordPress functionalities.

    You can keep an eye on the forum or use RSS feed with any other applications to get notified when there is a new post – https://forum.graphene-theme.com/rss

    Thanks for your interest in helping the community!

    @Prasanna: Thank you….

    1) I also figured out that there is an option for adding code in <head> tag under Graphene Options > Advanced. I added the CSS code here and it works just well. But surely going to try this out too. Thanks.

    2) Sorry for the silly Question. But when I click on the rss link, it takes me to an XML page or something. How do I add that to notify me?

    Thanks again.

    Rather than adding style info (with <style> tag) in<head>, you can just enter the CSS code to Graphene Options -> Display –> Custom CSS. Just enter 

    .entry-title {
    
font-size: 20px !important;
    
}

    there.

    2. Use can use tools like these to get notified of new posts – http://www.feednotifier.com/ …. http://blogtrottr.com/
