    Try:

    p.wp-caption-text {
  font-family: arial;
  font-size: 13px;
}

    Hi again! I’m having problems with the caption text size again. The original CSS changes did work as suggested (I set up a child theme CSS file), but the text size (and font type) has reverted back to normal paragraph style. Has the theme coding changed?

    It looks like the p.wp-caption-text style is missing.

    Try running your child theme code through this tool to check for errors:

    It says the code is validated (this is in the child css file. And it worked before (when I first asked this question and changed the CSS as suggested). I’m wondering if the child css might not be overriding the styles.css for the theme?

    Later… hmm. I added the p.-caption-text code to the original styles.css and this seems to work. So still wondering if my child CSS file is somehow not working.

    You’re probably right that it’s a specificity issue and it’s not overriding.

    You could try:

    #content p.wp-caption-text {
  font-family: arial;
  font-size: 13px;
}
