With BlockStrap, GeoDirectory&#8217;s elements pick up the font you choose there.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Classic themes: go to Appearance &gt; Customize and look for a Typography or Fonts section.

Some themes set that root size low, which makes every GeoDirectory element look small. Go to Settings &gt; AyeCode UI and set HTML Font Size (16 is the usual browser default).
