    I've recently upgraded my EPIK theme to 1.3 with HTML5 features at http://www.destinationweddingsguide.com

    With the new style sheet and HTML coding - I'm having trouble editing the font size, letter spacing on the main navigation and the widget menu in top right. I want the widget top right font much smaller, and the main navigation I need smaller and less padding

    Anyone know which code cluster will actually change it?

    I'm also trying to get simply social icons back up into the header like in the previous version, but anytime I put it in the header widget it breaks the spacing of the whole header.

    Hi

    Two tips first:
    1) I'd always recommend creating yourself a development copy of your site to make changes to rather than putting them into live, and then copy over the theme files once they are correct to your live server website.

    2) rather than edit the main style.css you could create yourself a custom.css and enqueue the style sheet so that it loads after the main one. e.g.

    /** Enqueue Genesis child theme style sheet at higher priority **/
    remove_action( 'genesis_meta', 'genesis_load_stylesheet' );
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'genesis_enqueue_main_stylesheet', 15 );
    
    // Queue the custom style sheet
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'thd_custom_stylesheet', 16 );
    function thd_custom_stylesheet() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'custom-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/custom.css' );
    }
    

    That way you can override styles without changing the main sheet and forgetting what you've done!

    To answer your actual question, you can edit the menu font size in

    .genesis-nav-menu {
    
    }
    

    It's current set to be 0.8125rem. Line number 1987 of the main style.css stylesheet

    Best
