Replacing The Default Logo With Your Own
Changing The Font Size of The Main Headline
1. Replacing The Default Logo With Your Own
Log into WordPress
Expand the Microthemer menu and then click on the “Manage Themes” link.
Under “Manage Micro Themes” at the top of the page, make sure that the theme you wan to edit is selected in the dropdown menu. If it isn’t, select it and then click the blue “Go” button.
Click the “Browse” button at the top right of the “Theme Files” table > Navigate to where you have stored your logo on your computer. Double-click the logo image file to select it.
You might decide it’s easier to resize your logo to fit with the current layout of the theme or change the theme’s layout to fit with the size of your logo (or somewhere in between). If you want to resize your logo, check the “Resize Image” checkbox and then specify a max width and/or max height.
Click the “Upload File” Button.
Click on the “Microthemer” link under the “Plugin Menu” on the right (it’s good to get in the habit of using that menu as it always stays visible on Microthemer pages).
Under “Header” click “Edit Selectors” to reveal the selectors
Under “Branding” click “Edit Styles” to reveal the styling options
On the “Background” settings, change the value of “Image” from “logo-example-138×50.png” to the logo you just uploaded.
Click the blue “View Site” button on the right to see the effect of changing the logo.
On the “Padding” settings, you might need to increase the “Top Padding” value if the bottom of your logo is being chopped off.
Adjust the top padding until it looks right.
Another thing you might need to adjust is the position of the site description. If so, do the following:
Scroll down to the “Site Description” selector
Under “Site Description” click “Edit Styles” to reveal the styling options
On the “Position” settings, increase the value of “Left” to move the text to the right. Increase the value of “Top” to move the text down. Decreasing these values would have the opposite effect. Yes this might seem counter intuitive! Look at the directional icons if it makes it easier to remember.
Click the blue “View Site” button on the right to see the effect of changing the description position.
Adjust the position settings until it looks right.
2. Changing The Font Size of The Main Headline
Log into WordPress
Click on the “Microthemer” link
Under “Header” click “Edit Selectors” to reveal the selectors
Under “Site Title” click “Edit Styles” to reveal the styling options
On the “Font” settings, increase or decrease the value of “Font Size” (so that the site title fills the width of the page without spilling onto 2 lines). Click the blue “View Site” button on the right to see the effect of changing the font size.
Adjust the font size until it looks right.
