Different algorightms. This happens to me all the time. Google is more picky, and places more emphasis on the mysterious "authority" which is a big secret.

If you're really stuck on using Renard then you may need to learn CSS to achieve the look you desire.
Marion, Thanks. I certainly have considered changing the theme. If I don't care for the results I get making changes, I will do just that.
Most themes these days have provision for adding CSS without creating a child theme or editing the theme's files.
Look under Appearance > Customize and you'll find "Additional CSS" at the bottom of the list.
In other themes, it may be called Custom CSS or something similar.
