font size for Mac Forums

[toMACsh]

Is there a setting to display a minimum font size here? I know that I can use Cmd+ to increase the font size displayed in Safari. That's not my objective. I'd like to be able to set it and forget it, just on this site. I looked under preferences in my Profile, but did not find such a setting.

I don't know about Safari, but I do know that Google Chrome has a Font size preference that can be set in its Settings Page, and possibly even a particular size for each particular web page site if needed or preferred.

For the latest macOS versions using Safari, have a look here:

Change Advanced settings in Safari on Mac

In Safari on your Mac, show full website addresses, set accessibility options, set advanced privacy options, and show features for web developers.

I don't know what version Safari you are using, but in the latest version (for Sonoma) click on the "Safari" in the upper left corner and one of the option is "Settings for <<website>>" There you can set a default magnification factor for that site and it sticks. That setting has been around for a while, but I don't know when it first appeared. And as I recall it used to be in Preferences, before it became Settings.

In the Brave browser for both macOS and iOS there is an easily accessible Page Zoom feature in settings. For example I have this page (Mac-Forums) set at 125% on my iPhone. Not only does it stay that way for every instance of MF's even if I access it from an email link but it applies to the reply box as well, something I have found lacking in other browsers eg. Vivaldi.

Oops! I forgot to look in on this thread until today!

Thanks for that info. I found it already set to zoom at 115% so I changed it to 125%. Looks much better!

Apologies for not replying sooner (must have missed this thread).

Font size for the site can be modified...but then it changes everything for everyone. Make it larger/smaller...some folks will like it...others will not. Lol

Using the method mentioned in post #1 is a good one (adjust browser window magnification):

* command + the plus key (command +)
* command + the minus key (command -)

Also remember (if viewing things on a laptop or desktop computer...not all displays/resolutions are the same. If I set my 32" 4k display to its largest resolution...text of websites will seem "teeny". If I reduce the resolution...text of websites will get larger (and everything else on the computer).

Sometimes need to modify the resolution of larger resolution displays...depending on the task at hand.
