 * Two questions.
   I’m using the latest posts block and the title is appearing under
   the featured image and is underlined (as it’s a link).Is there a way to have 
   the title overlay the image (say in the lower left corner?And how do I get the
   links styled to not be underlined? Is that a broader setting that I have to do
   or do I have to do advanced and try to style it (and how would I even do that
   since it doesn’t seem to allow me to set only the “a” to “text-decoration: none.”

 * The “Latest Post” block, like all blocks, comes with basic default styling. This
   default styling can be (and is often) overridden by themes, and some (but not
   all) the styling options can be tweaked from the post/site editor.
 * A last resort is to use custom CSS to arrive at your desired look and feel.

 * Please provide the URL of the page in question so I can examine the HTML and 
   give you the specific CSS code and instructions on where to put that code.

 * I’m afraid I can’t. The site is not open and so it’s displaying a coming soon
   page, so I don’t know how to get by that except through the editor. And I’ve 
   looked at all the styling options, so I’m probably going to have to manually 
   adjust with CSS. I’ll inspect the page code and see if I can find the tags to
   style. I’m using the twenty-twenty-three default theme.

 * All right. I tried and couldn’t get it to move. Here’s what I’m dealing with (
   I launched it so you could see):
   [https://awardslandscape.com/](https://awardslandscape.com/)
 * I’ve tried top, padding-top, and margin-top 
   The div I want to move upwards is
   wp-block-latest-posts__post-titleI also have to contend with the variable length
   of the title and the page so that it goes to two lines rather than one. I figured
   I just needed to bottom align it, but that’s also not something I seem to be 
   able to do in the block style tab.
