Can’t edit class…?

    I added a text widget to one of the side columns of my site, but it unfortunately does not display like the other widgets. It seems to have its own class that I cannot find to edit. The same issue was raised in the following thread 5 months ago, but no answer was given:

    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/118104

    The question was raised another time as well, but while the moderator edited out the code from the poster’s question, they did not answer the question.

    Like the above thread, the problem class is textwidget.

    I’m using the Talian 1.0 theme and you can see the problem under “For Merchants” on the left side of the site at http://www.affconnect.com/

    Has anyone seen similar and managed to fix it? Somewhere I read that textwidget was a class outside of themes. Is that true? Can I somehow force it to not use the textwidget class on text widgets? Is everything in WordPress so convoluted, or did I just pick a troublesome theme?

    Thanks much!

    The problem is your text in the text widget it’s just to links. You need to add the formating your self. Use something like this

    <ul>
<li>
<a href="somelink">Link</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="somelink2">Link2</a>
</li>
</ul>

    Notice the ul and li tags and their relation to the links.

    You know, I did that yesterday, but guess I didn’t save it right, or maybe I added all the css for UL and LI after I removed the tags.

    Many thanks for sorting me out! Sometimes it takes a fresh pair of eyes. I don’t suppose you have a site I can link to in thanks? I’ll add it to my blog post on the subject. A little link juice never hurt anyone. 🙂
