    I just realized that the font for bullet lists is different than the font for the rest of my post's content. How can I change this so the font is the same as the content font?

    I'm using the Mocha theme and it is the latest version.

    Are there any mods who can help with this?

    In the absence of a URL for your site I am looking at the Mocha Demo.

    The body font is Droid Serif and this should be inherited into the other elements of the site unless it is changed in your style.css.

    The style for your bullet points (unordered lists) is found on line 703 of style.css in the demo. You could specify a font there if you wish.

    I could see better if I had a URL

    This is the code for the bullet lists in my style.css:

    /* Ordered / Unordered Lists
    ------------------------------------------------------------ */

    .entry-content ol,
    .entry-content ul {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0 0 25px;
    }

    .archive-page ul li,
    .entry-content ul li {
    list-style-type: square;
    margin: 0 0 0 30px;
    padding: 0;
    }

    .entry-content ol li {
    margin: 0 0 0 35px;
    }

    .archive-page ul ul,
    .entry-content ol ol,
    .entry-content ul ul {
    padding: 0;
    }

    How would I add font to this?

    Try:
    .entry-content ul {
    font-family: arial;
    }
    to give you arial. Substitute arial with whatever font you are using for your post content.

    Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it didn't work. Here is the link to show you what I see:

    I just realized something! This post doesn't have lists but does have div tags. All the content in div tags is a different size and font than the regular content. I'm referring to the content under each game image.

    Can someone please help me with this? Any text that is in div tags looks awful, especially in Chrome browsers. I really want to get this fixed so that the text looks the same as all the other text on my site.

    The game images are all using in-line styles:

    <a style="color: inherit; display: inline-block; text-decoration: none; margin: 1.5%; vertical-align: top; width: 17%;" href="#prisonerofazkaban"><span class="prthmb" style="-moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; width: 100%; padding-bottom: 100%; font-size: 0; margin-bottom: 3px; overflow: hidden; background-image: url('http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51DEJ5CK1SL._SS300_.jpg'); background-position: center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: contain; border: solid 1px #888888; border-radius: 10px;">&nbsp;</span><span class="prnme" style="display: block; color: #000000; font: 12px/1.1 arial; margin: 3px 0; font-weight: bold;">Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban</span></a>

    Notice that the span surrounding the text changes the font to arial. You need to remove those spans and you'll revert to your site's style sheet.

    Victor - Thank you!

    I didn't specific the font family for the in-line style. Any advice on how I change the style sheet so it won't do this?

    Please, is there anyone who can tell me what I need to do to fix this? It really looks awful and is affecting a large number of posts on my site. I didn't do anything to specify the font for in-line styles and I don't see anything in the stylesheet.css file about it, and I have no idea how to change this.

    Try adding the following to your style.css (perhaps just before the media queries):

    .prnme {
        font-family: Droid Serif, serif !important;
    }

    I'm not sure if that will override the inline styles or not but give it a try.

    Eamon - Thank you for the suggestion. I might be putting it in the wrong place (I tried several) but it doesn't make a difference.

    I'm seeing Droid Sans now in the titles under the thumbnails in the Table of Contents. Am I correct thinking that is where you want the font change?
    If you are not seeing the change there, refresh or clear the browser cache. I have checked on Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari but not IE.
