This tutorial will teach you how to use some clever CSS to change the look of a specific part of a sentence using the bold and/or italic text types in Squarespace!
A few important things to note before you copy and paste this into your own site:
+ This is just one way to create this look; I prefer it for my own work because changing font to bold or italic is super easy while typing right into your Squarespace site.
+ You can use this trick for any type of text in Squarespace, not just the 4 examples here!
+ If you don’t see the change right away, trying adding !important to make the browser use your code instead of the site styles file.
+ If you want to install this on just one page on your site, and not the whole thing, check out this tutorial for a step-by-step tutorial on how to do that with any code: https://youtu.be/kX6kRjCbzu8

Here are the code notes from this tutorial:
→ For bold text use the word strong and reset the font weight to normal so it’s no longer bold. Here is an example for H1 text:
h1 strong {color:green; font-weight:normal!important}
→ For italic text use the two letters em and reset the font style to normal so it’s no longer italic. Here is an example for H1 text:
h1 em {color:green; font-style:normal!important}
→ Want to add a half highlight background to your bold font? Try this code
h1 strong {color:purple; background: linear-gradient(to bottom, rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%, lavender 50%)!important; font-weight:normal!important}
→ Give three styles a try, using different colors for bold and italic!
h1 strong {color:green; font-weight:normal!important}
h1 em {color:purple; font-style:normal!important}
→ For heading two fonts, change h1 to h2
→ For heading three fonts, change h1 to h3
→ For paragraph text, change h1 to the letter p
