Header 5

Updated

Usage

Open Appearance → Customize → Styles → Header 5 to set the fifth step of your heading scale. The defaults match Header 4 (Alternate font, uppercase, bold), but you can change them for a separate sidebar or label style.

These settings apply to H5 headings and to blocks whose headline style is set to H5.

When to use it

  • Sidebar, footer, or filter headings that should stay smaller than card titles (H3).
  • WooCommerce or archive pages that use H5-sized labels.
  • When you need two sizes of uppercase label. Adjust Header 4 and Header 5 together.

Tips

  • If H4 and H5 look the same, set Color to Muted on one of them.
  • Mobile Size matches the desktop size by default. Change it only if labels wrap awkwardly on phones.
  • For clickable filter pills, use Styles → Tags.
  • A heading style changes the look, not the heading level. Choose the block's actual heading level when it offers one.
