Title: Widget problem: style="clear:both" Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Widget problem: style="clear:both" * Resolved [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/) * Hi, * I have successfully solved a problem with Quick Event Manager. * The widget (under my theme) always got as long as the text in the main page. The quick fix to this was editing quick-event-manager.php and replacing two occurrences of `style="clear:both"` with `style=""` * However, this is a hacky solution — each time a new version of this plugin comes out I will have to change it manually. Could you please have a look at this? * P. S. This is **finally** a working, usable, easy-to-use WP event plugin! You are a hero! * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/quick-event-manager/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/quick-event-manager/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 23 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/page/2/?output_format=md) * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460641) * I was just about to upload a major update with a zillion new features so it’s just as well I checked the support forum first! * I’ve deleted the clear:both bit and it seems to be working OK. Can you email me through the plugin website and I will send you the update to test ([http://quick-plugins.com/quick-event-manager/](http://quick-plugins.com/quick-event-manager/)) * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460650) * Hi, * wow, that is great. There is however a problem with this solution: If you disable the option to have links to the event in the widget, then the formatting gets corrupt. Maybe it should be replaced with `clear:left` or `clear:right`. * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460815) * I’m not seeing the same problem – it all aligns as it should on my test site: [http://testblog.co.uk/](http://testblog.co.uk/) * Links on/links off and styling on/styling of – no difference. * Can you send me a link to your site so I can check the code? * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460818) * Hi, * the site is [http://www.monikazidkova.eu](http://www.monikazidkova.eu). * Here are the screenshots with the problem: Broken (i.e. links to the event are disabled): [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Broken.PNG](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Broken.PNG) Working (i.e. links to the events are enabled): [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Working.PNG](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Working.PNG) * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460819) * The output has two parts: the icon and the event content. The icon is floated left of the event content. If you have a very short event content area (ie: just the event name) it doesn’t extend below the height of the icon which is why you need the clear:left. * That’s the technical bit out the way, I’ve just sent you the update. fingers it works crossed this time! * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460820) * Thanks! Did you send it via email? Because I haven’t received anything. * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460821) * Yup, sent it about 30 minutes ago. * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460822) * It got caught by a spam filter for some reason, I’ve got it now. Many thanks. I will test it and let you know. * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460823) * I installed the version you provided and the situation is even worse: Broken content: [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Broken1.PNG](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Broken1.PNG) This is how it’s supposed to look: [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/OK1.PNG](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/OK1.PNG) Broken widget (again second entry aligned after the content of the main page): [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Broken2.PNG](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52098652/Broken2.PNG) * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460825) * Sigh…. * I wish I was better at coding. I’ve sent you another update. * I’ve tested the plugin using the 2014 theme and it works – this is the base test I use to make sure there aren’t any gremlins. Which does sort of indicate there is a clear fix hiding somewhere in your theme code. * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460826) * No problem at all, I am happy to help you testing it. * If you want to try it with my theme, I am using zeeDynamic Theme. * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460827) * The problem still persists. I will leave it broken for the next 10 minutes so that you can have a look at it. See [http://www.monikazidkova.eu](http://www.monikazidkova.eu) Could you tell me once you have seen it, so I can revert it to the working version? * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460828) * Can you resave your styles, there is a style missing from the css. * Thread Starter [Augustin_Zidek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/augustin_zidek/) * (@augustin_zidek) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460829) * I did it, it got better, but not completely. See the web. * [Graham](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aerin/) * (@aerin) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-problem-styleclearboth/#post-5460830) * Can you delete that one event for now and see what happens. If it all look ok it means there is something odd. * When I looked at the event the gap reduced so there is some odd going on that I can’t identify.
