1. To change the green color in the theme, you can open the main.css file in the folder path “\wp-content\themes\dw-minion\assets\css” and change all the green color in the main.css file in your color.
please search the color here: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colornames.asp

2. To change the font in the post on the theme.
Step 1: Go to site here to find the font you would like to use: http://www.google.com/fonts/
Step 2: click the Quick-use

Hi Celine,
To change font size in the DW Minion theme. please Log in to Dashboard > Theme > customize > Custom Code  then add the following code to the “Header Code”

 <style>
body {
    font-size: ...;
}
.widget_nav_menu li {
    font-size: ...;
}
.site-description {
    font-size: ...;
}
.widget_categories li {
    font-size: ...;
}
.entry-title {
    font-size: ...;
}
.entry-meta .posted-on, .entry-meta .comments-link {
    font-size: ...;
}
</style>

Hope this helps!

Thank you very much Dominic !
Meanwhile I’ve changed main.css. Is it a good solution ? (I’m sorry, I’m french and my english isn’t very good 🙂 )

Hi Celine, Technically you can edit directly in main.css file, however we would not recommend it. Because: it’s hard to maintain and manage the code that you have changed, in case you want to upgrade the theme. A good practice here is create a custom-style.css in asset/css folder. Then add this code line to Header:

<pre data-dw-comment="u7Td9"> <link rel='stylesheet' href='[http://localhost/joom/dw-minion/wp-content/themes/dw-minion/assets/css/customstyle.css](http://localhost/joom/dw-minion/wp-content/themes/dw-minion/assets/css/customstyle.css)' type='text/css' media='all' />

Or else: you can simply download Minion version 1.0.5 
https://www.designwall.com/wordpress/themes/dw-minion/
In this version we support custom font, style in customizer section in back-end already.
Hope this helps!
