Hi there! The problem I am having on the website is only about one post, There are fifty-nine posts on the website which had a small font size issue but the size of all the posts has increased since the Additional CSS code was applied. The is not doing CSS code work on just one post so I have made the font size bold text of this post so that the reader will not have any problem.

Hi there,

One way to achieve this is to follow these steps here:

  • Visit your post, then right-click on the page and select Inspect Element
  • After that search for the article tag and find the ID as follows:

WordPress article id

  • Then once you have the ID you can use it to add custom CSS for that post only:
.post-8862 { 
    background-color: #FF0303;
    color:#FFFFFF; 
}

Hope that this helps. Best, Bobby
