 * Hey [@cdmonline](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cdmonline/),
 * The best way to prevent icon containers from overlapping is to use uniform excerpt
   lengths across all of your announcements.
 * You might try increasing the announcement excerpt length of the top announcement
   that is overlapping.
 * You can enable the ‘legacy support’ option on the settings page to enable a layout
   where icons are unable to overlap.
 * And finally, you can use CSS to try and tweak the margins of specific containers
   to help with the overlapping.
 * We also have a documentation article which may help you:
