    I have Design Palette Pro installed and am trying to reduce the font size of the post titles that show up as part of the Genesis Featured Posts widget. I've tried adjusting the font size in Sidebar ---> Widget Content ---> Font Size. No luck.

    Font size, font stack and font weight cannot be changed. Font alignment changes in Preview mode, but goes away if I save it.

    The plugin is updated. Help!

    Thanks,
    Jennifer

    Deisgn Palette Pro is lacking in certain circumstances, Though if you use the Freeform CSS add on, you can make any changes you want within the plugin ( or of course, don't use the plugin at all - and just add to your theme's style sheet)

    To target the post titles in the sidebar, try either:

    In your stylesheet:

    body.gppro-custom .sidebar .entry-header .entry-title {
        font-size: 20px;
    }

    In the Freeform CSS

    .sidebar .entry-header .entry-title {
        font-size: 20px;
    }

    You would be able to make other changes there too.

    Thanks for the help, Graham. 🙂

    I emailed support for Design Palette Pro because somehow my license wasn't activated (when it had been before). They had to do it manually due to a bug, but also told me the plugin was updated yesterday. Didn't show as out of date in my plugin list.

    Now there's a new sidebar item: Featured Posts - Title and adjusting that fixed the sidebar issue.

    Unfortunately, if you take a look at other widget areas on the page (Home-Bottom and Before Footer Widgets), the titles are still overly sized there.

    I may try to use the CSS you posted and see if I can figure out the stylesheet for those widgets.
