Ghost excerpt box

    I would like to have some sliders using the content from the post and some not – just 100% image.
    ** The faint outline of the excerpt border always appears in the slides.** (examples here http://newlilypad.wpengine.com/)

    I have tried border: 0px !important;} for .slide-excerpt

    .slide-excerpt-border p {
    border: 0px !important;}

    #genesis-responsive-slider {
    background: #ffffff !important;
    border-bottom-width: 0px !important;
    border-right-width: 0px !important;
    border-left-width: 0px !important;

    Is there anything else to try?
    Many thanks

    The border is coming from your theme CSS:

    html > body .slide-excerpt-border {
background: none;
border: 1px solid #ddd;
display: inline;
float: left;
margin: 10px;
padding: 14px;
position: relative;
z-index: 8;
}

    Thanks, Ron.
    I see that code using Firebug, however when I search the main css for .slide-excerpt-border, there is only one entry:

    .slide-excerpt-border p {
    font-weight: 900 !important;
    color: #000000 !important;
    border: 0px !important;}

    I’ve checked the filename – it’s the same file all (90%) of the Css is, and where I’ve been making changes.
    Usually the CSS doesn’t start with html. I don’t know what difference that makes. Do you?

    html > body .slide-excerpt-border

    is more specific than

    .slide-excerpt-border

    Even though both selectors would apply to all elements with the slide-excerpt-border class, the first one is more specific so it will override any CSS specified by the second selector.

    The html > body is being shown that way in the developer console because it’s being specified that way in the CSS. Did you check to see if your theme had more than one CSS file?

    Hi – this style.css shows as =ver 0.9.2 – I checked it and it shows in the genesis responsive slider css. I’ll edit that now.
