      Hi Wes,

      New Epik theme user here. Trying to setup my site in a wide layout. My issue is I’m seeing some strange styles when adding the Genesis slider and Featured Posts widgets.

      Specifically the white boxes and unstyled text (slider titles, featured post titles, author, etc). I’m comfortable making php or css changes if you know of any solutions.

      Thanks

        I’m changing the way the featured posts show up in some of the areas of the homepage in a future update, so that will be out soon.

        If you’re going to use the featured posts widgets in the welcome area, then you’ll have to change the hyperlinks to show as a darker color, since it’s set as white and the featured posts have a white background and can’t be seen.

        Look around line 1268 in your css for this – 

        .welcome a {
    color: #fff;
}

        What’s wrong with the slider? It seems to be working fine when I look at it. That’s the way it works by default, but if you wanted to get rid of the border (for example), you can add this to your style.css file to override the plugins css – 

        html > body .slide-excerpt-border {
    border: none !important;
}

          Thanks for the response. Seeing the white boxes on both the featured posts and slider, I thought maybe I had missed a setup step somewhere. Both the slider and featured posts are separate plugins though so I understand they don’t necessarily come styled to the Epik theme.

          Thanks for the css excerpts, I’ll look at those areas while styling these features to Epik. Look forward to the upcoming changes for the Featured Posts plugin.

            If you’re intrested, I always tweet when I make updates to any of the themes here – http://twitter.com/wesstraham So I should have that done pretty soon.
