 * Hey guys
    I need to change the small 1px borders that are currently #e0e0e0 and
   solid, to dashed and #238abe. However, I’ve changed literally every instance 
   of “#e0e0e0” in my style.css and it hasn’t changed it on the site. The border
   I mean is the one around pretty much everything inside the blue dotted border
   that currently exists.
 * Thanks

 * Py,
 * Paste this code on your custom css plugin form:
 *     ```
       body. site{
       border:3px dashed #e0e0e0 !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if it works 🙂

 * I think you have what I mean mistaken.
 * I already have that code in my CSS to change the border around the outside. I
   want to change the inside borders (all the ones that are grey) TO the blue colour
   that’s the same as the dashed one outside.
    Not the other way around 🙂 Sorry
   if it wasn’t clear. Thanks for any help!

 * Hello Again,
 * The only gray border I found is around the slider… And actually is not a border,
   is a box-shadow.
 *     ```
       .slider-boxed #slider .rslides-inner{
       -webkit-box-shadow: none;
       -moz-box-shadow: none;
       box-shadow: none;
       border: 1px dashed #238abe;
       padding: 5px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if it works.

 * That worked for the slider, yes 🙂 And I edited a few other bits in the main 
   style.css in a similar fashion that seems to have worked. However, if you see
   where I’ve circled it looks strange. Do you know what’s happened?

 * Good Morning Py!
 * First of all, thanks for the screenshot. It help me a lot!
 * I found the problems with the dashed borders. There was code from them everywhere!
   I think this code bellow will solve your problem.
 *     ```
       .widget li,
       #sidebar h3.widget-title:after {
       border-bottom: none;
       }
   
       .widget ul{
       	border: none;
       	border: 1px dashed #238ABE;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if it works.

 * Heya.
 * That code got rid of the strange bit on the top of each box but the odd diagonal
   dash remained at the bottom. I removed the ‘border: 1px dashed #238ABE;’ part
   from the second part of that code and although the parts are no longer boxed 
   and just underlined I think it looks okay.
 * The only thing remaining from the border issue is that on each individual post(
   as seen here; [http://flymagpiefly.com/wordpress-resources-at-siteground/](http://flymagpiefly.com/wordpress-resources-at-siteground/))
   at the top of the post there is that strange line again. Do you know how I can
   get rid of it?

 * Thanks 🙂
 * If I could ask you.. I do need a bit more help!
 * Two things;
    The main page, I don’t want the posts to be truncated with “read
   more,” I’d like them just to display in full (see [http://www.flymagpiefly.com](http://www.flymagpiefly.com)‘
   s most recent post for a test post.)
 * Also, I would like to put some CSS that would give my image a border around it
   by default (2px white margin then 1px #238abe border around that, if possible.)
 * You’re the best 🙂

 * Hey!
 * Let’s do it 🙂
 * About the read more: unfortunately I can’t help you on that because I need to
   check the theme files on your server to see the code and modify as you need.
 * About the image: just paste this code bellow.
 *     ```
       .entry-content img{
        padding:2px;
       border:1px dashed #238abe;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if it works 🙂
