 * I cannot adjust the width of the widget as it displays on-page. I have tried 
   many of the CSS patches mentioned in earlier resolutions, yet none of them work
   with 3.9.1.
 * Would someone please help! I am out of ideas!

 * I am also having this issue. The widget appears very narrow.

 * kirbyjo3, that is set by your theme:
 *     ```
       .widget { width: 100px; padding-bottom: 25px; }
       ```

 * Hi! Thank you for the reply.
 * Can you explain where I place that code? In the style sheet? At the bottom of
   the style sheet?

 * Just a side note: that code is already located in the “sidebar” section of my
   style sheet along with other .widget stuff.

 * Sorry I was unclear. That is the current setting in your stylesheet. Here’s the
   fix:
 *     ```
       .widget { width: auto; };
       ```
   
 * Modified stylesheets tend to get overwritten by theme updates so if your theme
   has a custom CSS option then add it there or try [Simple Custom CSS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/).
 * Otherwise, either remove the existing `width: 100px` or add the fix to the bottom
   of the stylesheet.

 * Ah, thank you!
 * Adding it to the bottom only worked once I removed the existing setting. Then
   all was well.
 * Thank you for your help!
