Post excerpt wont display right in Home Feature Widgets #1 and #2

This is something that I have plans to fix in the next update. Basically it’s using the code from other areas of the theme and displays as if it is inside a sidebar.

This is the code it’s using (line 1403) –

.home-feature-bg-alt .featuredpage .page,
.home-feature-bg-alt .featuredpost .post {
    float: left;
    margin: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0 0 5px;
    width: 300px;
}

It is also using this (line 2191) –

.entry {
    box-shadow: 0 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    -moz-box-shadow: 0 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 3px 6px rgba(0,0,0, .2);
    background: #fff;
    margin: 0 3px 40px;
    padding: 20px 0 0;
}

The above code explains that box shadow that you see on the sides.

If you can tell me what you want to have removed I can point you in the right direction to get everything fixed now (so you won’t have to wait on the update).

The reason there is extra space in those particular widget areas is because they both are set to 45% width. So if the featured posts widgets are only 300px, and the widget area that it’s inside of is 45%, then there will be extra space since the widget area width is wider than the fixed widget (300px). You can change the featured post widget width to 100% if you want it to fill the entire widget area (home-feature-1 and home-feature-2). Hope that makes sense.

You’re Welcome!
