 * If you are able to access or change your CSS, you should be able to add the following
   to bold the headlines:
 * a.rsswidget { font-weight: bold; }
 * If you use JetPack, you can do that through the Edit CSS option under Appearance.
 * I am planning an update to this plugin that will allow you to have more control
   over the output of the feed information.

 * Many thanks GrandSlambert,
 * I placed the code you suggested above into the theme’s CSS and it worked a treat!
   You can see it here:

 * Just remember that placing it in the Theme’s CSS means that the next time the
   theme is updated, your changes would be lost. Better to install something like
   JetPack which has an Edit CSS feature that allows you to add CSS through a simple
   form.

 * Thanks for the advice GrandSlambert! I haven’t come across JetPack before but
   will certainly check it out as I have other modifications to the CSS which might
   be vulnerable in the event of a theme update as you say. Cheers, Julian
