How to Customize the Jelana Tumblr Theme Text Options?

This post will show you how to customize the text options of your blog if you’re using the Jelana Tumblr theme. To get started, go to the theme options page of your blog.

Here are the meanings and explanations for each of these text options:

Just leave the textboxes blank if you don’t want to display these features.

Font Family and Font Style

If you want to use Google Fonts instead of Tumblr’s built-in fonts, then refer to the following options:

Blog Title Font - the font family for the title of your blog 

Post Title Font - the font family for the titles of your blog posts such as Chat and Text posts. This includes caption titles (if you turn on the caption titles feature) for Photo, Panorama, Photoset, Video, Link, and Audio posts.      

Body Font - the font family for the body part of your blog such as the contents of your posts

Quote Font - the font family for quotes in quote posts. This applies only to the quote itself as well as the first line in the body of the quote post (for the author or source of the quote).

The rest of the text in the quote post uses the Body Font.

Go to https://fonts.google.com/, copy the name of the font/s you want to use then paste them on the appropriate textboxes. 

Blog Title Font Style, Post Title Font Style, Body Font Style, and Quote Font Style - the style of the font family font. For example, bold or italic.  

For the font styles:

On the Google Fonts site, click the name of the font you want to use

On the popup box that shows up, click the Customize tab

Put a check on the styles that you want to use

Go back to the Embed tab

You will see symbols of the font style next to the font family name

Copy this style and paste it on the appropriate textbox on your blog’s theme options page

Add : (colon) before the style

For example, the Jelana demo blog’s Post Title Font is Playfair Display. The Font Style is :bi. This means the style is bold italic. You can also use :700i.

Here’s a screenshot for reference:

Albus Dumbledore: Here are the contestants for the Triwizard Tournament. Fleur Delacour from Beauxbatons, Viktor Krum from Durmstrang, and Cedric Diggory from Hogwarts. Oh, and Harry Potter. Come on up, Harry. By the way, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?

What Harry did: Wait, what? No, I didn’t. I didn’t put my name in the cup. I never wanted to join this tournament. *proceeds to participate in tournament, actually tries to win*

Students: *hate on Harry Potter, believing he put his name in the Goblet of Fire*

Draco Malfoy: Support Cedric Diggory, Potter stinks

What Harry should have done: Wait, what? No, I didn’t put my name in the cup. I never wanted to join this tournament. I refuse to participate.

Albus Dumbledore: But Harry, your name came out of the Goblet of Fire, so you must participate in the Triwizard Tournament.

Harry Potter: For the last effing time, I didn’t put my name in the cup. I swear I’m telling the truth, and I can prove it. Come on, use Veritaserum or Legilimency on me. Seriously, what’s wrong with doing that? If you read my mind and use the truth potion on me, then you’ll know for sure that I didn’t put my name in the Goblet of Fire, so I don’t have to join this competition.

Dumbledore: Harry, your name came out of the cup, so you have to participate or else *insert reason here like you’ll lose your magic or your life*

Harry: *very confused* What? Why?

Sample Text Post Reblog

On the Clarent Tumblr theme, reblogged text posts with no title look like this.

Reasons Why James Potter Didn’t Really Love Lily Evans

Agree with both @deeplyhorriblefan and @snakebitcat. The Snape’s Worst Memory scene in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, book 5 of the HP series by J.K. Rowling, seems to show that James Potter didn’t really love Lily Evans. Why? 

Blackmailing someone you love

If you love someone, would you resort to blackmailing them just to get them to go out with you? If James really loved Lily, why would he force her to go out with him when she already said no?

“I will if you go out with me, Evans,” said James quickly. “Go on… Go out with me, and I’ll never lay a wand on old Snivelly again.”* 

(Side note: as mentioned in this post, it’s been a while since I’ve last logged on to Tumblr. Am now working on trying to finish all the posts in my drafts page and then publishing them on this blog. This post is one of them. The post date tells me it’s been sitting on my drafts page since Oct 4th, 2016 8:11:54pm.)

Yuragu Koto Nai Ai is the first opening theme song of the Get Backers anime and manga series. It was sung by Tamura Naomi.

Sample Answer Post Reblog

On the Jelana Tumblr theme, reblogged answer posts look like this.

Even if Remus did send letters, the Dursleys would have intercepted them. Also, Remus wasn't necessarily in close contact with Hogwarts teachers. And he was barely able to find a job. I don't think writing to his dead friends' son who he barely knew would have been his first priority when he was practically homeless, unfortunately.

Good point on the Dursleys likely intercepting the letterssince they did try to do that in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone whenHarry got his Hogwarts letter. I was thinking that if something like that didhappen, then it would have made Remus Lupin suspicious.

How To Change The Colors Of Your WordPress.com Blog?

Sample Chat Post Reblog: On the Jelana premium Tumblr theme, reblogged chat posts look like this-

Contents of Reblogged Chat Post: This is an answer to the post title question in an amusing and interesting chat format-

You: Whoah, this WordPress.com theme looks so awesome. Wow! (sparkling eyes)

WordPress: I know, right? (smile) There’s plenty more where that came from. And, look, we even have paid premium ones. Why don’t you try them out?

You: Thanks but no thanks. I like this one. I’m okay with it already. And it’s free. Cool, isn’t it? Oh, but wait, there’s just one thing. I’m not all that fond of the colors of this theme like the color for the links. Why is it red? What’s up with that? I want to change it to a nice blue color. I mean, that’s the usual color for links anyway, right? So, how do I do that?

WordPress: It’s very easy. All you need to do is get the Custom Design Upgrade and then you can customize the CSS of your WordPress.com theme. It’s for 99-

You: Cents?

WordPress: Dollars. Per year.

You: Ah. I see. Let me just- wait, what? Seriously? (incredulous) You're kidding, right? Hahaha. Okay, that’s not really funny. I mean, come on, $99 per year? But all I want to do is change the color scheme of my blog. Something like adding a:link{color:[hex color code here];} and you want me to pay 99 dollars per year just to do that? What is this, I don’t even…
