    I have a column widget which links to a page on our site. It has a title bar, an image, and then test from the page below, with the "read more" link at the bottom, which links to our Specials page. Pretty standard.

    When you look at the specials page there is a header that says "Specials", a horizontal line, then another header at the top of the body of the page that says, "New Client Specials 20% off First Visit Only". Then there are some lines of text with specific services and pricing. Here's the page: http://radiantretreat.com/specials/ Again, pretty standard stuff.

    Here's the problem: The widget just grabs everything on the page and displays it with no formatting. so it looks like this: "Specials New Client Specials 20% off First Visit Only Radiance Exfoliating Facial with Tracy ($64) 90 Minute Massage with Brenda ($68) June Specials 15% off De La Terre … read more"

    I can add some dashes & periods and make the widget look better, but it's not exactly how I want the page to look. Probably an acceptable compromise though. Now the widget looks like this: "Specials - New Client Specials - 20% off First Visit Only. Radiance Exfoliating Facial with Tracy ($64). 90 Minute Massage with Brenda ($68). June Specials - 15% off De … read more"

    So really just one thing left that bothers me. The "Specials - New Client Specials". Is there any way to exclude the header?

    That isn't a text widget. That is a Featured Page widget, which strips all of the formatting out. If you want it to appear the way you want it - you "need" to add a "Text" widget and title it Specials for that area and not the Featured Page Widget. Then copy your code into that widget and save.
