Widget to match the theme

    I have problem with matching a specific widget with the rest of widgets in the sidebar in terms of:alignment, font type and color.

    This specific widget is third party developed (not bundled with the theme I use). However, I also have other 3rd party developed widgets that match perfectly with the widgets that came along with the theme.

    The site is http://ydbuzz.com
    The widget in question is ‘Top Votes’ on the very bottom of sidebar.

    Wish the expertise of the experts around here will solve my problem.

    Thanks,
    Pradeep

    difficult to tell if this is a problem with your plugin/widget, which might be ignoring the way the sidebar is registered in functions.php; or the ‘register_sidebar()’ code in functions.php of your theme; or the code in sidebar.php.

    can you post a download link to your ‘top votes’ plugin?

    Hello Alchymyth,

    I belive you are asking the plugin(and link) i use for the ‘top votes’ widget. If thats the case, I use the plugin ‘Reaction Buttons’ and here is the link http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/reaction-buttons/
    Thank you for checking this for me.

    try to replace the content of the file

    /wp-content/plugins/reaction-buttons/reaction_buttons.php

    with this: http://wordpress.pastebin.com/0f2fYreK

    that should correct the html tags for the title and the widget content.

    then remove this style from style.css of your theme:

    #sidebar div.widget_reaction_buttons h4 {
	margin: 0;
	margin-top: 4px;
	font-size: 1.1em;
}

    the rest may need a bit of css tweaking.

    good luck 😉

    Alchymyth, thanks a lot.

    That solved the widget’s title style mismatch and the (mis)alignment of the widget contents. A Big relief.

    The remaining is to just give bullets for the widget content, which i believe i myself can figure out a way to do that.

    Thanks for your knowledge and time,.. very helpful
