    Hi this should be an easy fix but I can work it out... I have modified the outreach pro CSS to neutralise the colour scheme. However the sub footer and footer widget areas are in italics. This only happens on the home page and nowhere else.

    My site: http://www.churchmediaresource.com
    A link to my CSS as a .TXT : http://churchmediaresource.com/?attachment_id=10346

    Thanks in advance
    🙂

    It looks like each widget area is wrapped in <em> tags which is causing the italics. It doesn't appear to be in the CSS, but in the actual widget areas.

    Have you modified any other code besides the CSS? Maybe inadvertently hardcoded <em> tags into the theme? Or perhaps added your widget titles and text with <em> tags by mistake?

    Hi thanks for replying I have only edited the css and added a couple of functions. I have a few plugins such as exec PHP in widget... could that be an issue?

    There's an easy way to find out. Disable the plugins one at a time, checking to see if the italics go away after disabling each one.
