Recent Posts Loop?

    I’ve added the “recent posts” widget, but I was hoping to customize the look surrounding it, but I have no idea where that kind of stuff is located.

    I’m sure it’s possible, and I don’t think every theme I’ve seen uses the same style for each widget, but I can’t seem to find out which file contains the code I need to edit.

    I use this widget on my site too. Depending on what you need to do, There are two places that you modify code to customize the widget:

    1. Your theme’s ‘style.css’ file
    The following id and classes are applied to the <li> tag that wraps around the widget.

    #recent-posts
    .widget
    .widget_recent_entries

    2. WordPress Core
    I believe that the core WordPress function that generates the html can be found here:

    /wp-includes/widgets.php -> line 806
