How to edit WELCOME text in AIR Theme

Hello, I am very new to a self hosted discourse so might be missing something obvious. How do I edit WELCOME TO OUR COMMUNITY text in Air theme? If I go to site texts section and type this text to bring a string, it does not bring a such string but similar texts. Thanks!

Hey, welcome noid!

This text is part of a Search Banner theme component included by default with the Air Theme.

Go to: Admin → Components
Search for “search banner”, and you can see below the settings the translation you’re looking for:

Awesome! Thank you very much, that worked well changing the wording. But would it possible to change a font size or even color?

It’s possible. There is no setting, but you can add some CSS in your theme or another new theme component:
For example:

.search-banner .custom-search-banner-wrap {
  h1 {
     /* CSS for the title */
     font-size: var(--font-up-6);
     color: aliceblue;  
  }

  p {
     /* CSS for the description */
  }
}
