Hi, It’s seems that no easy way to change the forum global font size. Could discourse team make a new feature to change the global font sizes? The global font size is too small now. Have a nice day, Frank

It looks like you may be on the Basic plan? If so, I’m afraid theme customisations are not available and you would need to upgrade to the Standard plan or higher to access that feature. I’ve moved your posts from Change font sizes in your themes over to here to keep the discussion grouped together…

as a user you can change your default font size setting in your profile - preferences - interface: [IMG_3253]

But I plan to setup a community with thousands of old people above 50 years old. It’s impossible to teach everyone setting their interface preferences to largest font sizes. It will be much better if there’s a easy way to set whole forum to largest font sizes

try this: in common css: body { font-size: 20px; } you can set the 20px to whatever size you feel is right. i think default here is about 15px. i fine control our site’s base font size this way in all themes.
