Wordpress - How to Bold Blog Titles

[lancekuanquestbiz]

Hi,

I am using Wordpress for my blog. I realised the blog titles are not in bold.

How do I bold it using CSS?

Thank you for any helo rendered.

Hi @lancekuanquestbiz — Welcome to these forums.

Presumably you are working with a pre-made theme that has its own CSS styles. There’s probably some styling in there that specifically sets the headings to be normal weight, so you could dig into that and undo it.

However, the general advice I see is not to mess with the theme’s default code, but instead set your own custom styles. There’s a spot in WordPress where you can write your own styles to override the theme styles.

Feel free to post a link to your site so we can suggest what styles to use. In the meantime, look up “WordPress custom stylesheet” to work out how you can access that custom stylesheet.

Thanks ralphm,

Unfortunately I am not technically trained on coding and such.

Hm, they actually are in bold, unless I’m looking at the wrong ones. Can you point to the headings you thing aren’t bold? Maybe you’d like them even bolder?

If you are referring to the title ‘Singapore Property Review of New Titles’, the selector to override that style is
.entry-content h1 strong. — Not quite sure why you need that inner strong tag in your html.

As ralphm has said these appear to be bold anyway, but if you would prefer to go with heavy you could use the following css.

e.g.

.entry-content h1 strong {
  font-weight: 900;
}
