Changing Font in Sidebar

[Mushroom_Daemon]

Hello, I am a newbie who’s recently started building a blog with the Diary theme. I’ve successfully changed to a custom font in my blog posts, but am unsure how to make changes to the links and title in the sidebar. Any help is appreciated!

The simplest approach is probably this…

mkdir -p layouts/partials
touch layouts/partials/extended_head.html

layouts/partials/extended_head.html

<style>
  .side-container {
      font-family: serif;
      color: red;
  }
</style>

In the above note that we are overriding a file in the theme’s directory; we are not modifying the original file. This allow you to update the theme in the future without losing your changes.

Thank you! That worked fabulously. If you don’t mind, can I also add formatting for the different Header types in this same file?

Thanks again!

You can add whatever CSS you want in that file.
