I had a few followers ask about how to change the size and font of their Pages tab. Well, here it is. I know I had mine smaller on my page and a follower mentioned changing it may make it better. So, I tried to figure it out. :0)
Here is what you do...
You need to edit your blog's HTML. In order to do that you need to log into your Blogger account. Then go down and click Template. Once the Template page comes up, click edit HTML. A friendly reminder that before you edit you should make sure you have a current backup. If you don't have a backup, you can download a backup in the top right hand corner where it says backup/restore.
Next, check to expand. Then use the browser's search function. Search for this code: ]]></b:skin>
Next, insert the following font properties:
.PageList li a {
font-family:"Lucida Handwriting", cursive;
font-size:130%;
font-weight:bold;
font-style:italic;
color:red;
}
I have highlighted in red the font and the size. These two items you can change according to how you want your blog to look.
I looked up my code to see what font my blog was using so I could keep it consistent. The font you are using should be some lines above the code you entered. I then played around with the font size until I found the size I wanted.
Last, click Preview to see your changes. If you like it, click Save Template and you are finished. If not, keep playing around until you like it, then click Save Template.
Goodluck! I hope this tutorial is helpful!
