 * Because the plugin class changed from .popular-posts to .wpp-popular-posts.
 * I changed it in the css file and now it’s working of course, but it would have
   been good to mention.

 * Oh, you’re totally right. I was changing stuff within the plugin, trying a few
   things and at some point I changed that. Will revert back to popular-posts in
   the upcoming update.
 * Thanks for pointing it out!

 * Or leave it, because then I have to change the css again. If I am the only one
   who complains about it…

 * Is there a step by step way for us to fix this in the mean time?
 * I tried restoring the v2.2.1 style.css file and that didn’t work for me.

 * It’s depending on how you use the css and that can be different to anybody. So
   it’s a bit difficult to give a general answer.

 * Thanks for your reply.
 * That’s a bummer, It’s broken on [my site](http://www.24spoilers.com/) and since
   I don’t know CSS and hired a designer he would probably charge me a fee for “
   tweaks” if he even has time to do it…
 * Would reverting/downgrading the entire plugin to 2.2.1 fix the CSS issue, or 
   is this something that needs to be changed manually? I have the popular post 
   widget right in the top of my sidebar and it’s ugly without css…

 * Hi guys,
 * Yes, it is easily fixable. Using a text editor such as Dreamweaver or Notepad,
   find this line:
 * `$widget_ops = array( 'classname' => 'wpp-popular-posts', 'description' => __('
   The most Popular Posts on your blog.', 'wordpress-popular-posts') );`
 * … and change it to:
 * `$widget_ops = array( 'classname' => 'popular-posts', 'description' => __('The
   most Popular Posts on your blog.', 'wordpress-popular-posts') );`
 * Save changes and you’re done!
 * Next release of the plugin, which will be available soon, will have this fix 
   already.

 * Thanks Héctor, very easy fix indeed and everything is working perfectly once 
   again 🙂
