widget not being styled as a sidebar widget
 

www.faith-house.org

I recently updated the login/logout plugin and now the widget for the plugin no longer appears inside of a widget frame even though it appears as a widget in the sidebar. How may I fix this? and in general how do I go about creating and applying css style for an item in a php file?

thanks in advance

where did you get the 'login/logout plugin ' you are using?

@STB

I have moved it around from one widget area to another and still the same.

Maybe I didn't phrase that correctly or i am using the wrong term but I know that in order to style an object via CSS you place tags(not sure if this is the correct term) around that object within the *.PHP file eg. #header then styling in that section of the stylesheet will be applied to that object. I just cant recall the exact procedure and syntax to do so and cant seem to phrase it right to get a good search hit.

it's this one here.

I dont mind so much that its not within a widget frame if I can find an easy way to style it, ie. padding, and the image/avatar position.

Did you add anything to the widget settings?
wait, are you editing the plugin itself?

you are editing the plugin - you need t contact the plugins author as to the best way to do what you are trying to do. Editing a plugin is out of the range of this forum. This forum is for questions about the Atahualpa theme not hod to change the code in a plugin...sorry

what html codes would to place before and after a plugin to get it to display in a widget with widget styling?

if you want to alter a plugin to work as a widget, I suggest you go read about widgets and plugins at wordpress.org, it is too big of a subject to address in this forum

@jugglehead

it is a widget already, Is added to the sidebar in the widget area.

the problem is, it is not having the widget style applied to it

That widget comes with it's own style sheet which is setting the style. Check the plugin to see if you can change it. It causes this to be added to the HTML of the page
