Is it possible to choose a font size that is not on the list for blog entries.
For instance, I prefer 11pt, but only 10 and 12 are available from the list and it won't allow me to enter a point size and press enter.

Hello Esahc,
you sould have the possibility of choosing 11pt when writing a post for your blog. Could you please attach a screenshot of this irregularity? Also, do you have this difficulty with a specific project or with all those you have made? Are you able to use 11pt within the text object?
Thank you for the information. Kind regards.

Thank you Elisa, firstly to answer your question, no this problem does not occur anywhere else other than the blog, even in a new project. Everywhere else I can highlight text, manually type in 11 and press enter to make the change, but in the blog and the entry closes and reverts to the previous size.
However, in order to ensure that my recollection was correct, and in defense of WX5 I must now point out that whilst I could always do this in earlier releases, I went back to version 12 and then version 11 only to find that this no longer works (I am stuck with the pre-defined list of point sizes) so I must assume it is an issue with my computer (& perhaps a failed Windows 10 update). Bit sad.
My apologies.
Good Morning Esahc,
your issue is due to the fact that you are using the font Tahoma, for which there is not the possibility of setting 11pt. This is due to the fact that the official creator of the font did not inlcude the size 11, and because WebSite X5 includes only the official fonts, in this case you cannot find the desired size. I am sorry for this situation.
Kind regards.

If only this were true Elisa, I normally use Roboto but in the test project I simply used the default. I have also tried Arial and the same is true.
However, after receiving your reply I returned to my blog and was successful in changing ONE blog entry to 11pt, I have been totally unsuccessful in changing any others :-(
BTW On Template Customisation, Text Style, the font type includes 11 point size (& it works with Tahoma). It would be nice if 11pt (13pt would be great too) was included on every point size drop down.
As I said, I have no problem entering 11 (or 13) manually on anything other than the blog. Did you experience this issue as well??
Hello Esahc,
I notified it to the developers the issue with using 11 or 13 pt on the blog editor.
Many thanks!
