      I have for some time had problems with widget texts floating around – i.e titles end up in the middle of another widget area, see http://source2pay-summit.com/ where you can notice text on top of a photo that does NOT belong there.

      When asking Studiopress folks one suggestion was that there are not proper <p>/</p> and so on which I have tried to fix.

      WHY does this happen – why can I not simply “stack” widgets on top of each other.

      Thank you for a prompt reply

          I think there might be an error in your HTML code that you added. Is it possible to create a temporary login so I can take a quick look?

          Sometimes if you forget to properly open or close a div or p tag, then it throws off other parts of the code on your site. This would happen on any theme or any site that uses HTML. The way to fix it is to make sure that there is an Open and Closing tag for your <div></div> <p></p> etc… If you don’t have enough, or if you have too many tags, then it would cause something like this to happen.

          It could also be another issue with your site, but in order to know for sure I’d need to take a closer look. I’m certain I can find out exactly where the issue is coming from and get it fixed. Just let me know

              Any news? I can tell the text is still floating.. Any advice on how to avoid faulty tags? Obviously me not being too familiar with html – I create articles for instance in a post and then copy/paste the text with tags to a widget..

                    Ok, I got this fixed in 2 seconds. I added the following code to your Custom CSS – 

                    .flexible-widgets .widget {
	clear: both;
	/*overflow: hidden;*/
}

                    Either the clear: both or the overflow: hidden would fix it, but I just used clear: both for now and left the overflow commented out just in case you need to use that in the future.

                    If you want to see it or adjust the code you find it in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS.

                      THANK YOU!
                      I have NO idea what you just wrote 馃檪 but does it mean I can use text/HTML widgets, custom post wiodgets etc “on top” of each other like now without text floating around?

                      THANK YOU again

                      Best
