Problem with event list

Hi Big Red Beer Wagon,

First of all, your name is glorious.

Second of all, your suspicions about your theme being at fault here are correct. Well, not necessarily “at fault” –?things aren’t broken or bad, your theme is just forcing its default list styles onto the widget.

Unfortunately the only way around this is to write custom CSS to style the widget how you’d like it. For a quick example, just the following CSS alone at the bottom of your theme’s style.css file should undo the excessive padding that you mentioned in your post:

.tribe-events-list-widget ol {
    padding: 0;
}

For further tweaks, I’d highly recommend checking out a tool like Firebug if you use FireFox, or the Developer Tools for either Safari or Chrome. They’re all free, and all come with “Inspector” tools that let you zoom right in on the page element you want to change, making it much easier to customize the styles of things.

I hope that helps!

Cheers,
George
