Hi I have some code: <p style=”text-align: left; padding-left: 16px;”>xxxxxxx in Cornerstone (TEXT element) It looks great in preview – a simple paragraph <p> font. However when I look at the live site, this xxxxxxx copy is bold.

http://69.195.124.107/~tudiofi8/ (Click BUZZ (in the nav bar)) The blue copy looks good, it’s the gray copy that should NOT be bold.

Thanks so much!

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in!

It is because the text element is wrapped inside HTML <strong> tag. A quick solution that should work is to assign class into <p> tag. Ex:

<p class="remove-bold-paragraph" style=”text-align: left; padding-left: 16px;”>xxxxxxx</p>

Then you can add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer:

.remove-bold-paragraph{
    font-weight: 400;
}

Other then that we request you to share login details of your website in a private reply to look more closely into the issue.

Thanks.

Hi there,

You’re using tag in your text elements, see :

<p style="text-align: left; padding-left: 18px;"><span style="color: 
#003366"><strong><em>“TRAINING WITH ADAM HAS BEEN TOUGH AS HELL, AND A TON OF FUN. I’VE NEVER FELT BETTER ABOUT MYSELF!”
</strong></em></p><strong></html>

It should be :

<p style="text-align: left; padding-left: 18px;"><span style="color: 
#003366"><em>“TRAINING WITH ADAM HAS BEEN TOUGH AS HELL, AND A TON OF FUN. I’VE NEVER FELT BETTER ABOUT MYSELF!”
</em></p>

Hope it helps.

Hi. No, I was talking about the gray copy below the blue copy. The gray copy does not have in it and yet is showing up bold.

Thanks!

Hi There,

That is happening because of the open tags. Your whole page is one html document, if you leave an open tag in the first section it will affect the second, third ans so on.

Please correct your content as Christopher recommended.

Hope that helps,

Joao

OHHHHHHH!! Got it, I’m a newbie (obviously) and am just figuring out how to read code. Is there a book or anything you can suggest to help me learn html and css? Thanks so much!
