GeneratePress: Number Headings Automatically

This CSS establishes a hierarchical structure for the headings and uses counters to generate numbered prefixes for each heading level.

.single-post .inside-article .entry-content {
    counter-reset: section-counter sub-section-counter sub-sub-section-counter sub-sub-sub-section-counter;
}
.single-post .inside-article h2::before {
    content: counter(section-counter) ". ";
    counter-increment: section-counter;
}
.single-post .inside-article h3::before {
    content: counter(section-counter) "." counter(sub-section-counter) ". ";
    counter-increment: sub-section-counter;
}
.single-post .inside-article h4::before {
    content: counter(section-counter) "." counter(sub-section-counter) "." counter(sub-sub-section-counter) ". ";
    counter-increment: sub-sub-section-counter;
}
/* Reset sub-section-counter for h2 elements */
.single-post .inside-article h2 {
    counter-reset: sub-section-counter sub-sub-section-counter sub-sub-sub-section-counter sub-sub-sub-sub-section-counter;

Add CSS to all Pages with Exceptions

In this case, I need to add a bit of inline CSS to all pages except for the homepage and the custom author page.

This function does exactly that, you can exclude by adding the ID of a page.

With this I was able to change the margins of the entry content.

//Adding Custom CSS
function add_custom_css_to_pages() {
    if (is_page() && !is_page(array(115712, 146606))) { 
        echo '
        <style>.inside-article .entry-content {margin-right: 20px;margin-left: 20px;}</style>
        ';
    }
}
add_action('wp_head', 'add_custom_css_to_pages');
