 * First, aboutwritingsquared.com ss a membership site so folks are required to 
   log in to get to the forum. Logging in requires wp-login.php. Yet from my reading
   use of php tends to blow up the widget. After tons of fiddling I did get this
   code to work:
 *     ```
       <center><a href="https://www.aboutwritingsquared.com/wp-login.php" title="login" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>Member Login</strong> </a></center>
       <strong>NOT Yet a Member? Look:</strong>
       	<center><a href="https://www.aboutwritingsquared.com/join2whyjoin.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>Join</strong></a> | <strong><a href="https://www.aboutwritingsquared.com/join2whyjoin.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">What Others Say</a></strong></center>
       ```
   
 * I can’t seem to change or enlarge the font. And, I’d love to center the title…
   but…
 * So how do I make the fonts bigger? And why does it not let me type a </ > to 
   close a tag, but seems to want me to generate the tag pair and put the content
   inside… very awkward imo.
 * Thanks for helping.
