 * Hi again Lisa, thats great thanks – I added the snippet to Customize > Additional
   CSS instead of theme file editor > child theme stylesheet and it sorted the issue.
   I had tried adding !important too but no luck. Is there a reason CSS here wont
   get applied?

 * Hi George,
 * Many thanks for your quick reply and help – much appreciated! 🙂
 * That seems to have done the trick. I had tried adding it to the top of the ‘additional
   CSS’ box but it had no effect (I couldnt see any similar lines targeting the .
   subtitle in the rest of the ‘additional CSS’ code). Was there another reason 
   to apply it to the end?

 * Can anyone else advise on this? I could create a new paginated page using a default
   loop but am unsure of how to set alternate backgrounds for each post.

 * Thanks for the reply Alchymyth. I’m afraid my knowledge of WordPress php is very
   thin on the ground. Where/how would I add the `nopaging` parameter to the above?

 * Anyone? I could use a default loop but I’m unsure of how I would set alternate
   background colors for each second post.

 * Thanks for the replies guys.
 * Sorry, I made a mistake on the above post. I should have added the below code–
   I still cant understand thou why it wont target the top menu items. Re: the About
   page, you’re quite right its bad practice – I’ll make sure to change it to ‘Home’.
 * #sidebar li .current-menu-item a:link {
    color: #000000; cursor: default; font-
   family: ‘LatinModernMonoLight10Bold’,arial,serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing:
   1px; text-decoration: none; /* IE 8 */ color: #000000\9;
 *  /* Netscape */
    -moz-opacity: 1;
 *  /* Safari 1.x */
    -khtml-opacity: 1;
 *  opacity: 1;

 * Thanks for the reply Paulwpxp, I did have the below in my style sheet but it 
   is only effecting the child targets not the top level menu items, it seems to
   be working backwards! could a plugin be causing this?
 *  #sidebar li a:hover {
    font-family: ‘LatinModernMonoLight10Bold’,arial,serif;
   font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; text-decoration: none; /* IE 8 */ color:#
   999999\9;
 *  /* Netscape */
    -moz-opacity: 0.5;
 *  /* Safari 1.x */
    -khtml-opacity: 0.5;
 *  opacity: 0.5;
    }

 * Its pretty confusing: even if I set the font size way down, so there’s no way
   the li items could be longer than the container width it still line breaks in
   Chrome and Safari.

 * Thanks for the reply WPyogi, I moved the \9 hack down below the default padding.
   The drop line also appears in IE 7 unfor, is there a way to CSS hack /target 
   padding in just Chrome and Safari browser engines?

 * Thanks for the help keesiemeijerz, I checked down thur the file and removed some
   </div> that the validator was showing up, unfor Iam not too sure of the other
   errors which would be causing the third post offset. I dont understand how this
   could happen either as I thought all the posts are contained within the ‘default’
   loop settings?
