In the new version, bold text is bigger than in other versions

Hi,

I am testing the new version in a local installation in my laptop before I upgrade. Please check this screenshot.

http://prntscr.com/ngvukm

The red arrow indicates text with new version installed. The other text is what my website looks like in an older version of the theme. As you can see, the bold text is bigger in the new version of the theme, which is really strange. When I go back to the older version in my local installation, the bold text becomes smaller.

What do I do to get the bold text to look what it should look, ie, smaller (which is more proportional and better, in my opinion). It looks like a bug, right?

Many thanks.

Hi,

It seems to be an issue in our latest update. Please check the following topic from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/headings-too-large-and-bold/ because there, was discussed that problem.

Thanks.

That is not where my problem lies. My issue is that as you can see at http://prntscr.com/ngvukm when you write something in a posting and use the strong html code the bold text is now bigger than it was with other versions of the theme. But that can’t be resolved within the theme panel. So how do I get the bold back to what it should be?

Hi,

You need to use the code below and place it in Theme panel -> Custom CSS area.

.entry-title {
font-weight: 400!important;
}

Thank you!

That doesn’t work. That css removed the bold from the sidebar which I really don’t want, but didn’t make the bold contained in a posting any smaller.

The bold is even worse in Chrome.

I just want the bold in postings to be the same bold I had while using other versions of the theme. I am happy with the bold elsewhere such as in titles or sidebars. As you can see only the bold in postings is different, normal text is fine.

Here is one link with some bold. If you ckeck it in Chrome the bold is particularly big. As I said I am only concerned about the bold in postings.

Hi,

First please make sure that you have enable the font weight that you need to set in theme panel -> https://www.screencast.com/t/ae3YcqcJCa
Font customization -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/font-customization/
After that you can set this custom css in theme panel
.td-post-content strong{
font-weight: 400;
}

Hope this will help you!
Thanks.

Thank you for your response. That did the trick. I hadn’t enabled the font weight in theme panel; all of that wasn’t in the version of the theme I was using before I upgraded.

I didn’t use the code you gave me because I’m happy with the bold everywhere else.
