Hi all,
I'm new to website works and I'd recently purchased GP, using Dispatch. I got some questions answered by exploring the forum, but I can't get answer to these 3 questions:
1. How to remove Author's name and date in the display? I'd tried to follow the guide but it doesn't work for me. I'm not sure what I'd missed, but appreciate if you can redirect me to the source so I can try it again.
2. How to set the default font size to "Medium"? currently, i have to manually change the font size in each new post. Is there a way I can change the default font size?
3. In the top right of the website, there's Social Icon sharing. Currently it is showing only 2. I needed 3, but it always only show 2. Is that the maximum? if not, how should i go about setting it to 3 or more if i require?
thank you!
Hi Leonard,
For question 1, are you talking about the author name in single post? If so, go to Appearance > Elemenents > Single Post Hero, and remove the author name from it.
For question 2, I'm not sure I fully understand. What do you mean by "Medium"? Can you link us to an example post?
For question 3, go to Appearance > Widgets > Header, you can add more social icons there:

Hi Ying,
Question 1 and 3 solved! Thanks so much!!
For Question 2, when I create a new post, i copy and pasted my article from doc into the paragraphs block. By doing that, the article automatically took on the theme's default font type and size of Dispatch theme.
However, i feel that the font size is kinda small, so I want to increase its font size to "medium" among all sizes selection available. Is there a way to change the theme default font size to what I want?
For Question 3, how do I add a link to my website facebook, pintrest and instagram? I'm able to successfully added the 3rd icon, but I do not know how to link it. I saw a "#" next to eg: facebook. what do I type after the "#" sign?
thanks!!
Is there a way to change the theme default font size to what I want?
YES! Go to customizer > Typography > Body, you should be able to change the font style there.
For the social icon links, you can use your own URL to replace the #. You can treat # as an empty url :)
