    Hi! I recently discovered Boldgrid and the Florentine theme when I installed a new site via my Dreamhost account. I’ve been using WordPress for several years now, but do not consider myself a coder by any stretch of the imagination. I specifically like the look of the Florentine theme and it’s Call to Action widget. However, when I had Dreamhost port the Boldgrid install to my account for a long-existing self-installed website, it’s not quite acting like the other “Dream Installs”. At first, I could not get the off-white background of the widget area to go away. After messing with it most of the day yesterday (including updating myPhP), I finally got it to look like this:

    I still can’t get the off-white background for the title area of the Visual Editor widget to become transparent. What am I missing? And, more importantly, how can I make sure I avoid this in the future should I wish to edit the text and/or graphics in that widget? Any help you can offer will be most appreciated. Thanks, Tee

    Hi Tee, thank you for sending us that screenshot!

    The white background above the Call to Action is most likely being added by the default theme styles, which automatically assign a white background and border to widget areas. The easiest way to get rid of that is through Custom CSS and you can used this code to remove the white areas entirely:

    .widget.well {
        background-color: transparent;
        border: none;
    }

    That should do the trick, but please let us know if there is anything else that we can do to help!
