Why does my textwidget have non-zero height but demo theme does not?

[purplepatriot]

OK, this is frustrating me to no end.

My dev site is: hsmc.wpengine.com

If you examine the green call-to-action section with Firebug, you'll see beneath the h4 tag (which is set to display: none), there is a div class="textwidget" that has a non-zero height.

However, if I look at one of the theme demos, say Executive or Modern Portfolio, and examine the same call-to-action area with Firebug, they have a zero height.

What I'm trying to accomplish is have the "learn more" doggie bone more centered with the text to the left, but for some reason, it appears to keep getting bumped down by...something that I can't quite figure out.

Probably something obvious - that male blind-spot front and center. 😉

Thank you!

Hi,

Your current html structure is

<div class="cta-left"></div>
<br>
<div class="cta-right"></div>

Remove the <br> tag and the alignment will be fixed.
