    Do you have a place in the dashboard to hold CSS modifications, other than in the theme’s files?

    Install this Custom CSS Manager plugin.

    Then use its section of the dashboard to hold this CSS:

    .widget {
     border: 0;
     background: none;
     box-shadow: none;
    }

    thanks – will try, but website is a disaster now because someone who did not know wordpress hit the update all button and wiped out all custom settings that I paid someone to do. Then I had to pay to get it fixed.
    Site is not backed up, so I’m overly cautious about installing/updating anything at this point.
    should I go to my web hoster first and have site backed up before doing this?

    Sounds like the person who you paid to modify the theme did not know what they were doing. Modifications should not be made to the originating theme’s files; hence why I recommended downloading the Custom CSS Manager plugin.

    Here are some recommended professionals: http://directory.codepoet.com .

    Sure, that couldn’t hurt.

    thank you! yes, have learned the hard way…
    will make sure site’s backed up first and then do the
    CSS plugin.
