Layout Widget element doesn't show Recent Posts or Categories

[sgchan]

I have a Layout. On the right column, I inserted a Widget and selected the default Main Sidebar, which has Search, Recent Post and Categories. The latter 2 doesn’t appear. Is this intentional?

Hello @sgchan,

Thanks for writing to us.

I checked your layout. It seems that the widget is rendering but due to font colour it is not displaying properly since the font colour is white and on white background white font is not visible.

You can use this custom CSS code under Pro -->Theme Option —>CSS

.archive .h-widget {
    color: rgb(0 0 0);
}
.archive .widget ul li a, .archive .widget ol li a {
    color: rgb(0 0 0);
}

OR

You need to set the darker background color of the column from the Layout builder so that font is visible.

Please feel free to change the color as per your design.

The purpose of providing the custom CSS to show you how to add CSS code to your site. Writing custom CSS is outside the scope of our theme support. If you need more customization, you need to learn CSS and learn how to use the browser’s element inspector.

Hope it helps.
Thanks

Thank you so much, Prakash. What a silly mistake! You’ve just proven I need to take a break and my mind is shutting down.
