Hi,
1. I don't know what forum thread you're talking about. But the method to change the font-size that I would recommend was still the same with the first release of HikaShop.
It's to add CSS on your website for it.
Supposing that you're talking about the product name on the product page, it's that kind of CSS that you want to add:
.hikashop_product_name_main{ font-size: 2em; }
Regarding where to add it, it depends how you want to handle it. You could add it in your Joomla template CSS, or in HikaShop's.
This tutorial explains how to find which class to use for your CSS, and where to add it when you add it to HikaShop's CSS files:

2. We don't mention the file path when we ask you to go through the interface of HikaShop because we want you to go through the interface. That's because if you edit directly the view file, or the CSS file, you'll loose your changes when you update HikaShop.
However, if you go through the interface we provide, the system will automatically save your changes in an override file. First you won't loose your changes when you update, and second, if you mess up when you do your changes, you'll be able to easily revert to the default version of the file that way.
