Changing Recent Post Order w/ Plugin & Text Sizing Issue

    ~ i wanted to change the stacking order of my recent posts from newest on top to newest on the bottom… in a different post, Kathryn, kindly wrote:

    ( “The Recent Posts widget is a core (default) WordPress widget and not part of the Edin theme – I don’t see an option to reverse the post order. You might look for a more robust Recent Posts widget plugin that allows you to do this – have a look and see if you can find one that meets your needs.” )

    … a simple PlugIn to do this with is: ( “Extensive Recent Posts Widget” )… it is not proven compatible at this time with WP 4.0… i risked this because it was simple, where the other plugins seemed much more complex in their capabilities… i even downloaded one of the popular ones that was compatible and ended up deleting it because i couldn’t get what i wanted easily…

    ~ the downside is that it seems to have overridden the font size used now in displaying the recent post content… any thoughts on how i can simply keep the new order, but return to the original font size ? – db

    Could you provide a link to your site so we can have a look at the code to be able to help with the CSS? I seem to recall you posted it somewhere else, but since you now have a lot of threads it would be handy if you reposted a link. ?? Thanks.

    hi, Kathryn; sure, thanks ?? !!!…

    here is what the site looks like w/ ERPW plugin in use:
    ( https://www.effetti.co )
    * update: there has been a change in that today the link content does NOT appear at all, while yesterday the links were present, but large… regretfully, did not capture the large fonts via screen shot ;(…

    and here is a link to a screen shot of what the site looks like w/OUT ERPW plugin:
    ( https://www.effetti.co/?p=351 )
    * using standard “Recent Posts” widget only with modified “Title”

    For the missing content in your ERPW widget, I’d suggest posting in the plugin’s forum to see if the developer can help you figure out why that happened and how to get it fixed up. I also see some other formatting issues with the bullets. I’d suggest you sort out those issues first, and then work on styling the widget content afterwards. Since no text is showing up at all right now, it makes testing CSS styles tricky, so I would recommend dealing with the bigger issue first. ??

    Come back once that’s fixed up and I can help with the CSS part, even though it’s not an Edin-related issue. ??
