I have two blog types on my website (Blogs and Updates). I need to change the P tag font size in both page templates. These are the page templates that show a list of the posts/articles. Blogs page (category.php) shows 10 articles at a time, and Updates page (index.php) shows 10 articles at a time.

For the Blog page (category.php): I was able to change the font size on the category.php page template using

    body.category p {
    font-size: 20px !important;
    }

For the Updates page (index.php): The paragraph string that shows the article excerpt

    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

is inside of a div that is styled by class a named ".entry"...if that makes any difference. I have tried several variations, but nothing has worked yet:

    .page-template-index .entry p {
    font-size: 16px !important;
    }

    body.index p {
    font-size: 16px !important;
    }

    entry.index p {
    font-size: 16px !important;
    }

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Entry is a class so when you're adding it to css you need to add a . in front. just try doing this:

.entry p {
font-size: 16px !important;
}

See if that works.
