Widget shows but no contents

Hi.

I have added your widget to my site. This is a feature I have been searching for quite some time. You can imagine my surprise to find this plug-in is available.

I have followed the directions to create the widget and think I’ve done it right. The widget appears on my front page, but there is no content. It shows a little icon indicating there are 2 entries, but nothing is displayed. It is as if the widget size is too small to display everything. Clearly I am missing something and need your assistance. Here’s the URL to my page: http://musicabrasileira.org/. The widget is on the right side, 2nd from the top. What have I overlooked?

Regards,
Egídio

hello,

Plz add this in your plugin css file \plugins\sp-news-and-widget\css\stylenews.css

.newsticker-jcarousellite li{height:40px !important;}

Plz use height as per your need..it can be 50px, 60px etc

There me be chance that your theme main style.css sheet may be conflict with ul li…

Thanks

Thanks for your reply.

I added the line in the stylenews.css and can see the box is larger indeed. It shows in any of the review pages but not in the home page. I think the theme could actually be the issue, as you suggest. Perhaps I should try to use a WP default theme, such as Twenty Fourteen and see how it goes.

For the time being I’ll deactivate the plugin as I won’t have much time to work on this. I’ll work on my problem after the holidays.

Thanks for your feedback!

I have the widget on my sidebar, but I see the entry line is using a large font size. It would be great if I could change the font size there. Instead of a large size, I’d like to switch to the regular font size used on the page. Do I need to update the CSS sheet?

Thanks.

Hello,

Please check the font size in your main stylesheet(style.css) and make same font size the news plugin css file plugin>sp-news-and-widget>css>stylenews.css

In you style sheet font size given 24px;
```
.post-title, .post-title a {
    color: #1772AF;
    font: 24px "Pontano Sans",sans-serif;
    margin-top: -3px;
}
```
you write one more line after this

.SP_News_Widget ul li a{ font: 16px !important; color:#000 !important;}

Here fontsize and color you take as per your need

In plugin css file find this css line
```
.SP_News_Widget ul li {
    background: url("../images/Calendar-Empty-icon.png") no-repeat scroll 0 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
    border-bottom: 1px solid #DDDDDD;
    list-style: none outside none !important;
    padding: 5px 0 5px 20px;
}
```
and replace with this
```
.SP_News_Widget ul li {
    background: url("../images/Calendar-Empty-icon.png") no-repeat scroll 0 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
    border-bottom: 1px solid #DDDDDD  !important;
    list-style: none outside none !important;
    padding: 5px 0 5px 20px !important;
}
```

Thanks for your follow-up. I do appreciate your detailed instructions, especially since I’m not knowledgeable about what goes on in the background. I’m about to leave town for the holidays and will implement your changes after I return.

Thanks again!
