    The theme I created using Dynamik Website Builder automatically applies a default format to widgets in the primary sidebar (the right column). If I make a custom menu, the styling of the title and the list entries works without specifying any CSS in the widget option box. If I use a normal "recent posts" widget, that also uses the default format for the widget title and the items listed. More important: if I use the standard "recent posts" widget it also applies the standard formatting. In other words, all the widgets of every kind use the same styling unless I want to change the default styling -- which I don't want to do.

    But if I use the Genesis - Featured Posts widget, it ignores the default formatting for widgets, and the style it does produce is unacceptably ugly.

    How can I get the Genesis - Featured Posts widget to accept the default styling as the other widgets do?

    I can't show the site because it is offline. Anyway, I don't want to write CSS code specially for the Genesis - Featured Posts widget when the best solution would be to make it apply the proper formatting automatically as the other widgets do.

    How can I make the Genesis - Featured Posts widget do that?

    Thanks!
