 * Ben – Great Theme. Exactly what I was looking for.
 * I’m finding the customization easy, but my css skills are non-existent.
 * I would really like to tweak out my right sidebar style 2.
 * 3 things:
 * #1 – I want the thumbnails to be 99×99
 * #2 – I want the title to be centered horizontally (middle) of thumb on right.
 * #3 – I want the (more…) to be an active link to the post.
 * I really appreciate the css tweaks you provide here on the forum. I’ve used several,
   and they really help create a custom look. Thanks again, Ben.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fright-sidebar-css-tweaks%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey,
 * Thanks for using Mission News!
 * I can help you out with those first two changes. Please add this CSS to the Additional
   CSS section in the Customizer:
 *     ```
       .widget_ct_mission_news_post_list .style-2 li .featured-image {
         width: 99px;
         height: 99px;
       }
       .widget_ct_mission_news_post_list .style-2 li .top {
         display: flex;
         align-items: center;
       }
       ```
   
 * We can’t make the (more…) text linked without a more complex customization. If
   you’d prefer to remove that text if it’s not linked you can do so by [creating custom excerpts](https://www.competethemes.com/help/change-excerpt-length-mission-news/)
   for the posts.

 * You are awesome. I really like how that tweak works. If anybody wants to have
   a look at the result:
 * [http://369Renew.com](http://369Renew.com) – right sidebar.
 * I am changing the (more…) tags by using custom excerpts. But, perhaps someday
   the (more…) links can be included in the plugin.
 * Thanks again, Ben.

 * I’m planning on adding an option to change the default “…” that follows the excerpts,
   and I can add an option to make it a link as well.
 * If you’re already using custom excerpts, you can add the link manually into the
   Excerpt box with HTML. Here’s an example:
 * `An example excerpt is right here <a href="http://369renew.com/">(more...)</a
   >.`
 * You can reuse the `<a>` element for each post excerpt and simply replace the 
   homepage URL with the URL of the post.

 * That works great for me. However, I will have future guest bloggers and I don’t
   think I’d be able to get them to do that.
 * But for now it’s a good workaround.
 * When you have a spare moment (or 20) and you update your brilliant plugin with
   that functionality, post on this thread and I’ll get an email notification.
 * Thanks again Ben.
