I realise I need to do something with CSS but I am not a coder so don't know what or where to put the info.

I am using Headway Theme with Jigoshop Connect. The content font for the website is Palatino but the shop pages appear to have Verdana on them. I have used Firebug to try & find the relevant stylsheet but all I get is
wp-content/uploads/headway/cache/6a41043e8d2094753c4636e74ab67dcf.css?ver=3.3.2 and when I open it it is blank.

Any help will be much appreciated :)

   Turn off your caching plugin. Then clear cache and recheck. Also post a URL so we can help you.

   Don't think I have a caching plugin? I've not installed one. Unless Headway is doing it?

   Headway is using a cached CSS file that is overwriting the fonts using a
   Veranda, Sans Serif.

   To fix this go to Appearence -> Editor
   Go to the active theme's main CSS file
   Scroll to bottom
   add: body{font-size:14px;font-family: Palatino, serif
   !important;line-height:100%;color:#555555;}

   Don't add css to the style.css - you will lose any css you place in there when you update the theme.

   Css should go in a child themes css file, or in the live css editor in the visual editor. These are two update-proof methods of adding or overriding css.

   @Gary B. The authors of the theme were notified of the CSS changes, and it won't matter because in next version w would expect these bugs to be fixed.
