    Hello Nikolaos,

    thanks for reaching out to us.

    The reason why changing the subtitles font size in settings does not work for you might be connected to the theme you are using.

    Try changing your font size via your theme’s CSS stylesheet:

    .flowplayer .fp-captions p {
        font-size: 24px;
    }
    

    For more informations on how to do CSS tweaks and fixes regarding our player, please consult the following documentation: https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/css-tips-and-fixes

    Let us know, if it worked.

    Thanks,
    Maria

    Hello Maria,
    I was not able to find an entry with “flowplayer” in my theme’s CSS stylesheet. The entry does not exist.

    Hello Nikolaos,

    I apologize if my wording about changing it via the theme’s CSS stylesheet was confusing. Just as it is written in the introduction of the CSS Tips and Fixes article, you will want to add this code into your additional CSS.

    You access it on your WordPress admin page by going to: Appearance -> Customize ->Additional CSS

    Let us know, if it worked.

    Thanks,
    Maria

    Hello Nikolaos,

    your theme might have some CSS in it which forces all the paragraph text to a certain size. That’s what might be blocking our subtitle font size setting.

    What Maria suggested should help.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hello,
    Unfortunately what Maria suggested did not work. The font size stays the same.

    Regards

    Hello Nikolaos,

    as I said your theme might have some CSS in it which forces all the paragraph text to a certain size.

    But this should just work in our plugin and you shouldn’t have to think about this.

    I tried to fix that, could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.

    Then re-save the plugin options setting the desired font size and see if it works now.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hello Martin,
    I replaced the plugin files via FTP but it does not work again. Maybe the issue is not related to the themes’ CSS.

    Regards,

    Hello Nick,

    it’s possible that your theme is setting the font-size in a forceful way.

    In the worst case you can add !important to the CSS code which Maria posted. I added that as a tip at the start of our CSS Tips and Fixes guide where you can find more examples as well.

    Thanks,
    Martin
