Heads up! this post was created when Microthemer was at version 4. The current version is 7. Some references to the interface may be out of date. Hi Sebastian, |

Microthemer can only target content separately if it has been separated with HTML tags. Much of the content on your page already has the appropriate HTML tags to separate the pieces of content. But you want fine segmentation of a sentence. And so you will need to manually add the HTML tags yourself. In WordPress, go to your summary of That Devil’s Madness page. Change the page title from:
To
Save the page and return to Microthemer. Now when you double-click the That Devil’s Madness text, Microthemer will be able to target it separately. I hope that helps! |

Hi, when I view your page now, everything after ‘summary’ in the title is missing? Could you check on that please? Once you’ve put the text back, here’s the next step: When you double-click something, the selector wizard appears on the right. Under the Targeting tab is a list of potential selectors for targeting elements on the page. Sometimes the default selector isn’t right. It may target too many or too few items on the page. You can change the selector by clicking an alternative one in the list. For your purposes, the following selector should work:
Click that selector. The highlighting will change to show that only the span element you added to the title is being targeted. Please let me know how you get on! Cheers, |

Yes, I’d deleted everything after summary until I worked out how to fix it – but I’ve re-added it now. Thanks for the advice, Sebastian, but it’s still not working. When I click ‘h1.page-title span’, just the title of the book is highlighted, as you correctly predicted. However, when I then try to change the font for that bit to italics, the whole of the page title turns to italics, not just the title of the book… |

Sorry, I should have gone on to explain that after you click the selector in the list:
You should name it and then click the CREATE SELECTOR button. This new selector should replace the one you created earlier that targets all the text on the page. You can delete the old one using the bin icon in the folders and selectors menu at the top left (which appears when you hover over a selector). If you apply italic to your new h1.page-title span selector, it should apply to just the text in the title, as the highlighting your saw suggests. Cheers! |
