Changing the line-height of body copy…

[broadsword]

Hi there,

We just tried to change the line-height of the basic body copy in our ‘theme options’ panel, but it didn’t seem to have any actual effect on the body copy as it renders in a browser.

Wondering if there’s a way we can force that in CSS?

I think the default is 20, we’d like to change it to say…32.

Works for me. Perhaps you need to clear your cache.

Yeah, I get the same thing – the line height preview shows up just fine, but the on-page text doesn’t reflect the change. We ARE using WPEngine, which has a CDN cache which only updates every 24 hours, so we’ll flush that and see what happens.

@sharmstr – yeah, that totally didn’t work. We re-set all caches on WPEngine, nothing, nada – it had no effect.

Screenshot attached – still wondering if there’s a way to force this with CSS?

I think you might be better containing it to the article div though

COPY CODE

article {
  line-height: 32px;
}
