 * This is giving me a headache, so I hope someone can help.
 * If you take a look at [http://www.elektrortetailmagazine.nl](http://www.elektrortetailmagazine.nl)
   you’ll see a vague grey vertical border on both sides. How do I get rid of this?

 * Hi timdevogel. Try this in your child theme css:
 *     ```
       .boxed #wrapper {
         box-shadow: none;
       }
       ```

 * Hi bdbrown,
    Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn’t work…

 * Where did you add the css? I don’t see it in your child theme style.css file.
   If I add it there the grey borders are removed.

 * What I normally do if I want to remove box-shadows from my page or the entire
   site is do this at the top of the custom sheet;
 * * {
    box-shadow: none!important; }
 * That removes all box shadow from the entire site BUT if you wish to use box-shadow
   for a certain part of the site then you can always just add wherever you need
   the box-shadow remembering to add !important; at the end so that it overrides
   the initial one at the top!
 * HOPE THAT HELPS

 * Hi bdbrown,
 * I’d removed the code, because it didn’t work, but I’ve put it back now:
 * .boxed #wrapper {
    background: #fff !important; box-shadow: none !important; }
 * (the background part is to make the whole sidebars white and I added !important
   in case I had to override something).

    Thanks, tried
   that, but also to no avail.

 * I just checked your site. There aren’t any vertical shadows. Maybe you had a 
   cache that wasn’t being updated? In any case it seems to be working now.

 * Hi bdbrown,
 * Indeed, it was the cache. The shadow’s gone now, although there’s still a very
   light, thin line if you look closely. Probably the shadow of another div?
 * Anyway, thanks for your help and patience!

 * Took me a while to find it but this should fix it:
 *     ```
       .container-inner {
         box-shadow: none;
       }
       ```

 * Great! I had to add !important, and then it worked!
 * Once again, thanks a million.
