EDIT: No URL but this is what I mean:
I'm trying to change the colour of my header font and the size of my font in my footer on my Avada theme.
Now when I use Firebug to see which CSS file those respective items are located in, it tells me Wordpress/#7(or whatever), and I don't know where to find those. I've already looked through my theme options and I can't find them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
If you're using Firebug, when you view the class in the CSS visibility sidepanel, you should be able to see a referenced style sheet where that class is located.
Here is an example of where its located

I want my Wordpress website navigation menu font larger And make the font become normal type, but NOT capital letters.
I have googled it and the result said need to change the theme style.css in WordPress dashboard, based on the tips but there has another issue, the style.css in my child theme is almost blank, only a few lines with the theme description (i.e. theme name / version / templates/ author etc.) , but Not the site theme CSS. Is the theme creator hide the CSS? So why this happened? And what should I do?
please see the screenshots below.
style.css
Big thanks in advance.
Most of the themes also have a section where you can put custom CSS. You can usually find this in the Wordpress Customizer, otherwise in the theme settings. This way you are always sure it wont disapear after updating your theme. Of course you can also use a child theme, but the style.css above doesn't look like it is from a child theme.
The CSS you are probably looking for is the following:
.nav{
font-size:14px;
}
If you don't know the correct CSS selector (.nav) you can find it here. To see what styles you should use for the element you can look at the CSS Reference of W3Schools. Hope it helps you.
Use a code inspector ie. Chrome dev tools to make the changes you want to the existing style and copy/paste that code into your child theme stylesheet.
EDIT
In Chrome for example, open the code inspector using ctrl+shift+i might be different on a mac, I don't know. by default it will show you your html markup and your css styles below. Locate the element you want to change either by finding it in the html portion or using the selector tool (top-right of the developer window) and selecting the element you want to change on your page.
That will show you the css for that element that you can modify as you wish underneath. Once you are satisfied with the styles you have changed/removed/added, you can copy that code to your child theme css.
Other than that, I can only suggest you find some resources and videos on using dev tools to help you out. If you are building a child theme you will need to be using them significantly.
PS. One more thing to note is that some wp themes have some code that you can only really change with a plugin or by writing custom css under the customizer.
You can figure out exactly what you need to write in the custom css area by using chrome's dev tools and selecting the font you want to change.
What I want is, for example, to change the css background color of navigations bar of .navbar-default, which can be done by .navbar-default{background-color:#000;}
But I want is, to see the full css style definitions of .navbar-default class, so I can look and change every element(text-color, hovering colors and every other thing) as I like. Rather than inspecting webpage elements for css codes from browsers, I want to look in a place where the definitions contain.
You can find all in readable format here
If you are using the CDN "version" of Bootstrap, then you won't be able to edit the CSS.
A good way to do what you want is by using your own local copy of the bootstrap.css file. You'll find herein all the definitions, and you can alter them as per your wish.
Conversely, you could also edit the .sass or .less files if you want more control.
edit:
Since the OP is using CDN, follow the following steps and you should be just fine:
Identify the element/ tag that you want to edit: div, input, etc.
Identify the attribute you want to edit: color, height, etc.
most importantly: identify the class or id of the element.
After you've done the above, create a new styles file, for example: styles.css, and write your new custom CSS rules in there as per CSS rules.
Include this file by linking it in your .html file using the link tag
Voila!
You can find and edit it in bootstrap.min.css
This is for new version
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap#4.6.0/dist/css/bootstrap.css
Just check the header import link and remove .min part if its minimised link
I want adding for #adminmenu div.wp-menu-image - adding margin, but I do not know where would get the chance (one css file). Anyone who knows where to add, please help and thanks in advance!
Usually the theme's main css file is located in the folder of the theme. You can add your css there or edit the existing css. The path is almost always wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/style.css
I had a question on how to find out which part of your code needs changing to adjust this "display:none !important" functionality which prevents the website to be responsive on mobile. When going under 767px content simply disappears and that condition triggers.
If I change it to "display:inline !important" that works but I've only done it in-browser and I can't find where to change it in the source files. Is there any methodology on finding this out? I've even used grep on all the files in the theme looking for keywords but I don't know where else to look. Also tried adding the changed code into the "Additional CSS" menu however with no success either.
The question is:
Is there any methodology to finding this [where the CSS lives] out?
You want to know the methodology to find the CSS. Let's walk through how I did it.
Step 1
The inspector gives you the location of the styles. Using your images, I marked the locations with the red boxes:
Notice that the style in question is located in (index):557. Where is that? It's not an external stylesheet, as with the style.css example. Rather, it's been added directly into the <head> and wrapped in <style>.
Using Dev Tools, look in the <head> of the DOM (in the HTML markup). You'll find it there.
Step 2:
Where do you find it? The method that I use is to look at the style declarations first in the <head>. Are there any comments to give you clues?
Next, I look at the actual style attributes. In this case, it's .tm_pb_builder. That is giving you a clue to the component that builds the CSS.
I did a Google search for that class attribute, like this: wordpress tm_pb_builder. That took me to GitHub and the Power Builder plugin from TemplateMonster.
Step 3
Now you know that the plugin Power Builder is the one responsible for adding that style into the <head>. You can then take a look at the respective page and explore how this page is built with this page builder.
That's my methodology.
You can add display:inline !important in the style.css of your child-theme, but it will only works if the plugin css file loads before it.
If the theme's css loads before plugin css, you can create a new css style and enqueue it at the very last end of the style enqueue.
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'se_41042975', 999);
function se_41042975(){
wp_enqueue_style('css-plugin-override', get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/css/custom_css.css');
}
Hope it helps!
I want to edit the class "top-labels" from the shopping cart page but I can't find it in the css stylesheet. How can I get around this?
Can anyone help?
Cheers
Use an A-grade modern web browser, like Chrome, Firefox or Safari. Find the developer tools for your choice. You might install Firebug for Firefox for example.
With that, right-click on the element you're interested in, say the one with the class top-labels. The browser tools will tell you exactly which CSS file contains the definition of the class, and the line number.
It cannot really be much easier. You can also change the CSS in your browser in that definition and see what the changes do, live. That is invaluable.
I think we need more info but from what you've said I'd guess that the top-labels class is either located in a different style sheet or is an inline style on the page.
You could try adding the top-labels style into the stylesheet you're using and add the styles you want to it that way.
