    I've just installed Magazine Pro at my site and am trying to tweak some features.

    How do I modify the background color for my navigation bar (top of page) and the other blocks with black backgrounds ("Featured Posts" etc)?

    How would I decrease the size of the font in the sidebar (but not change the size of the fonts elsewhere)?

    How would I modify the color of the post headlines that display on the main page?

    How would I modify the color of the blog title in the header?

    I presume this is done via css, but not sure where/how to find that.

    Hi Richard,

    I'd recommend you get to know the Developer Tools of your browser.
    You can "inspect" the element / area and it will show you the css selectors in play

    Here is an introduction to the Chrome Developer Tools: https://www.nutsandboltsmedia.com/how-to-customize-your-genesis-child-theme-with-chromes-inspector/
