Variable block text size for desktop & smartphone

  • Hi

    In my website Home Page I’ve had some feedback that the text size is a bit too small. It’s fine when viewing with a smartphone. Can I vary the text size depending on the device used to view the website? Also, I can’t seem to find how to change the text size in my home page blocks. Can you help?

  • Hi there,

    for sure, can i see yours site ? I can then tell you the best approach for changing the font sizes

  • Great, thanks the site is

  • Hi there,

    In Appearance > Typography, set a typography setting for the body. Set it to a better-sized font size like 18px. Reference: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/dynamic-typography-overview/

  • Thanks. How about the other question regarding varying text sizes for the differing devices eg desktop & smartphone? As noted above the text size is fine for phones but a bit small for desktop.

    Also, in my website home page I embedded a video. Is that the best way to handle videos? It’s ok when viewed on the desktop but not so much on smartphones (takes a while to appear). Should I create a video library somehow & just link to it? Can you suggest some options?

  • There’s a responsive view option to set different font settings per view in the Typography Module. Example: https://share.getcloudapp.com/geuPZY2B

    How exactly did you embed the video? And, where is the video coming from? Is it a file or is it a video from YouTube or Vimeo or something else?

  • The video was an iPhone video ‘file’ imported from the media library into a ‘media & text’ block. I couldn’t resize it & wrap text around it like I did with the imported images. I know that you can link to videos in YouTube & Vimeo. I might end up using Vimeo as I intend to develop video workouts for a paid subscription in the website.

    In the meantime, while I develop some initial posts, I will need to import or link to video files, again, taken with my iPhone. I’m probably missing something with the video import options? Am I?

  • I see. Can you open a new topic regarding this Video issue?

  • Thanks regrading changing the text size & varying the size depending on the viewer (desktop, table or mobile). The weird thing is when I open/view it on my iPhone via the google app it’s perfect but when I open it via the Chrome or Safari apps the text is smaller. Any thoughts?

    I have another topic question under review regarding an imbedded Vimeo video.

  • Can you share the link to where we can observe this? Also, point us to the specific text to look at.

    We’ve also responded to your other topic regarding the video. Thank you!

  • Sorry, false alarm re the text size in various smartphone browsing apps. all good

  • I see. Glad it’s all good!

  • Sorry, all good & consistent now. Fixed itself somehow
    Cheers

  • Cheers!
