 * Hey [@laurajenkins90](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laurajenkins90/), 
   
   I had a look at your site and the subscribe widget does not have bottom margin
   while the widget after it does, this is why there’s no gap between these two 
   when you move the subscribe widget to top. This can be fixed by adding a short
   CSS snippet, here are the steps you can follow:1. Copy the below CSS code:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       #text-2{  margin-bottom: 1.5em;}
       ```
   
 * 2. Go to Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS
   3. Paste the CSS code and save
   changes

 * Hi laura, When you move the **Subscribe** widget to the top, it may cause the
   category divider styling to disappear due to the way the theme handles widget
   placement. A quick fix is to check your widget or sidebar CSS and ensure there’s
   a border or margin defined for each section.
 * For example, you could add something like this to **Additional CSS**:
 * `.widget { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; margin-bottom: 20px; padding-bottom:
   10px; }`
 * This should restore a clear separation between widgets, regardless of their order.

 * Hey [@laurajenkins90](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laurajenkins90/), 
   
   You can add the code you want to add under Appearance > Customise > Additional
   CSS. I shared these steps above as well, copying them here for easy access:

 * Alternatively, here’s a step by step guide from WordPress.com that you can follow:
