 * I am trying to adjust the spacing of my widgets and footer line with default 
   v.1.06. Basically I want to add additional vertical space between my widgets.
 * I am also trying to increase the size of my footer line. I added this line of
   code in the CSS tab of the customize menu and it worked with the older default
   theme versions.
 * ‘.hentry .footer .line {
    height:300px !important; }’
 * Also the widgets in my footer have a bullet point next to the title. How do I
   remove it?

 * A link to your site would help.

 * In style.css find
 *     ```
       .widget h3 {
       line-height:2em;
       padding:0 4px 0 8px;
       }
       ```
   
 * The first 0 in padding is your spacing on the top. Change to 10px or 15px or 
   whatever you like the spacing to be for widgets.
 * For the footer
 *     ```
       #footer {
       background-image:url("http://www.symhome.net/wordpress/wp-content/themes/constructor/themes/default/footer.png");
       background-position:right bottom;
       background-repeat:no-repeat;
       width:1024px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Add a height property in there like
 * `height:450px;`
 * and change the size around until you get what you want.
 * To remove bullets in footer you would have to add a new style. Something like
   below
 *     ```
       #footer, ul li {
       list-style: none;
       }
       ```

 * Well the widget spacing and removing the bullet points worked.
 * Where do I find the code for the footer to increase the spacing? I could not 
   find it in the style.css file. And when I added it, it did nothing.

 * Its located here.

 * Now it looks like its using some sort of cache plugin or the theme does it. But
   somewhere it generates that CSS and the site does use it. I would just check 
   all the .css files and your cache folder.

 * [@antonshevchuk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/antonshevchuk/) What code
   do I enter into the CSS tab? I originally had this code in the CSS tab with an
   older version of the theme and it worked.
 *     ```
       '.hentry .footer .line {
       height:300px !important;
       }'
       ```
   
 * And the code suggested wpbum suggested put the image in the wrong location. Basically
   I am trying to get the footer text line to increase in height.

 * W/out .line (i removed this is element for more easy structure)
 *     ```
       .hentry .footer {
       height:300px !important;
       }
       ```
