    sumit_tumba,

    Thanks for your post. If you want us to take a look at your site, please provide a link. Based on your description it is likely that this is due to CSS properties being set by your theme. We recommend you select the area where the text should be displayed to see if the text is actually there but cannot be seen. Then examine the CSS properties being set by your theme.

    Cheers,

    -Bill

    sumit_tumba,

    We haven’t heard anything back from you so I’m going to mark this as resolved. If you want us to take a look at this further, let us know.

    Hello, I have the same problem. The website is:
    http://bcnonprofits.ca/ndbcnp/

    The registration/login panel is on the sidebar.
    I know that you have specified that it supports up to version 3.6.1, and I am using 3.7.1 but everything else seems to be working ok, except for the fact that the words on the tabs are not showing.

    Thanks for any help.

    phuile,

    Thanks for your post. We looked at your site. The text labels on the widget tabs are there, they are just not being displayed properly due to the CSS styling of your WP theme. We verified this by examining the actual HTML elements output on your webpage. If you are using Google Chrome you can do this by right-clicking on the HTML element in question and selecting “inspect element.” This can also be done in Mozilla Firefox using the same technique.

    The text labels on the widget tabs are actually being output below the tabs, which is causing them to be hidden by the content below. There are a number of things that could be causing this. We recommend you take a look at the div.nd-blockcontent element on line 1420 of your theme’s style.css file. It is forcing a specific font, font-size and line-height (175%) — all of which could be creating the issue, as there is only so much space in your widget area. We recommend adjusting the line-height property, or commenting it out altogether, though keep in mind that this will affect ALL widgets in your sidebar widget area, not just WP User Control. So, it is best to experiment a little and make sure anything you change does not cause other issues.

    Cheers,

    -Bill

    Thanks Bill – I have adjusted my theme and have changed the block content line height to be 100% but I still can’t see the text on the tab. Can you take a look?
    Unfortunately, I started out as a designer so I am doing my best in coding my theme. I know some CSS and HTML etc. but I need some advice as to how to manage this …
    You mentioned commenting the line-height out, where should I do this? And what if I want to control the line height on other elements on the sidebar?
    Any help is appreciated>

    (Also, I don’t actually know how to make this thread not to label as “resolved” and I hope you still get this reply.)

    phuile,

    Looked at your site again. The other item we noticed is that your theme is forcing a PNG image to be displayed in front of all list items, which affects the text in the tab headers as they are output as list items.

    Because your theme is over-riding the default CSS styling for WP User Control, you will have to play around with the element styles in your theme style.css file a bit to get it right. The CSS element style that is adding the PNG image to all list items is 1471 – .nd-block ul>li:before.

    Look in your theme folder for the style.css file, that’s the one you need to edit.

    Cheers,

    -Bill
