 * I have 2 widgets above each other. I want to use the same look for both of them.
   I have changed the look of the events calender, but i want that mij “recent posts”
   have the same looks. I don’t find how I can change those settings.
    Thanx!

 * Try adding the CSS below to the bottom of your **style.css** file or via a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   or via the [Jetpack](http://jetpack.me/) plugin’s custom CSS feature:
 *     ```
       .widget_recent_entries {
         text-align: left;
       }
       .widget_recent_entries li,
       .widget_recent_entries span {
         clear: both;
         display: block;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you’re using Chrome or Firefox you can **right-click** on anything in your
   page and choose **inspect element** to debug CSS issues.

 * Hey there Arcss,
 * Hope you’re well today!
 * This can be done with some custom CSS. Please try adding the following CSS code
   in the style.css file of your [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   or if your theme doesn’t have custom CSS tab add it in your site using the following
   plugin:
 * [http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css](http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css)
 *     ```
       .widget_recent_entries li {
       margin-bottom: 10px;
       }
   
       .widget_recent_entries a {
       display: block;
       }
       ```
   
 * This should make your recent post widget to be displayed as the one below.
 * Hope this helps 🙂
 * Cheers,
    Bojan
