How to remove text shadow from Sidebar Widget X-Theme

Support
#1

I have tried all of recommended Code options for removing the Grey Shadow text over the HEADLINE and BLOG POST LINKS in my Sidebar widget in X-Theme. I can change the colour of some items but there remains a GREY TEXT over the text which won’t go away, no matter what code I place in the Custom Code.

Please help

Hi @stuartmurphy,

Thanks for writing in.

To remove the white shadow, add this in your custom CSS:

.widget{
text-shadow:none;
}

To change font color,

.widget ul li a{
color:#000;
}

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks. :slight_smile:

Hi,

Tried this and it doesn’t work. It is the GREY shadow OVER the text that I want to remove. I have tried this along with all other code from the forum. I can see the WHITE text behind the GREY text on top (like an overcasting cloud shadow) but I can’t get this greyness to disappear until I hover over the buttons.

Thanks for writing in!

Please add following CSS under X > Launch > Options > CSS:

.widget.widget_recent_entries li a {
    color: #fff;
}

Thanks.

Absolute genius!!! Thanks a million!

Any idea why this is added to the CSS code section and not the Global CSS?
