    Hello,

    I wonder if anyone may have some tips on how to close the gaps on the bottom of the widgets on this home page which is set up with the News Pro theme.

    Basically, I need the background color of the widget areas to extend all the way to the bottom to close up the white space and be even in length.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    There are multiple rules at play.
    There are widgetted areas specific to the home page and there are the widgetted areas in the primary sidebar on all pages. The issue with each has to do with a border being applied to a variety of container divs.

    For those in the primary sidebar for all pages there is a rule:

    .sidebar .widget {
    border-bottom: 3px solid #F6F5F2;
    }

    For the left two boxes on the home page there are these rules adding borders:

    .home-middle-right {
    border: 1px solid #F6F5F2;
    }

    as well as

    .home-middle-left {
    border-right: 1px solid #E3E3E3;
    }

    If you get those addressed that may do all you want but there is also a border applied to larger containers

    content-sidebar .content, .content-sidebar-sidebar .content {
    border-right: 1px solid #E3E3E3;
    }
