FAQ

How can I activate the function of the plugin?

Once the plugin is activated, the functions of the plugin work.

I have activated the plugin, now what ?

To be able to use the plugin, you should create a menu. You can use (or not) that menu in a widget.

The trick is to simply add the CSS class afr-normal to display normal size, afr-large for large text and afr-xlarge for very large text.

You can also apply this CSS technique in your PHP files or directly in your content.

I click the resizer, but (some of) my fonts don’t change in size. How to fix that?

Simply inspect the element that is not resizing properly to know what element it is. Then, simply add it to the ‘HTML Elements’ section in the options’ screen.

You can find the plugin’s settings in Settings > Font resizer.
