 * How can I increase the thickness of the borders around the latest posts?
 * I have the home page set to latest posts summaries and I want a stronger differentiation
   between posts.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
    I think this is what you mean:
 *     ```
       .single-footer {
       border-bottom: 4px solid #eee;
       }
       ```
   
 * Paste that in your custom css box in theme options > advanced settings.
    Hope
   it helps!

 * Hi Hannah,
 * That didn’t seem to work. It didn’t seem to change the the border of anything
   on the page. I specifically want to increase the border of the post excerpts,
   but I don’t know what that element is in the stylesheet. Any idea?

 * Also, I am having a problem with the text from our second most recent post on
   the homepage. It is running into the sidebar. Any suggestions?

 * Try this for the borders:
 *     ```
       .postlist article {
       border: 4px solid;
       }
       ```
   
 * As for the excerpt, I’m not really sure why it’s doing that. And it’s strange
   that it’s only happening on one box. Have you added anything different to that
   excerpt?

 * Hey, Your issue in the excerpt has to do with the text you seem to be using: `&
   nbsp` for a space and there should be… see:

   nbsp;a timeline, or chronological chart in Origin.`
