[Support request] Help needed with Display Category List

[Norman]

Hello,

I have a plugin I just installed called Display Category List –

I have tried to contact them for assistance with a problem on display of the left sidebar, but perhaps it would be something you can help with.

I activated the list view and the white background I need does not display for the entire length of the widget. It just barely starts and then stops as you can see by the screenshot here:

Is there a way to adjust this so that the white background in the widget or sidebar will continue all the way?

I deactivated list view and went to drop-down until I hear an answer. I can easily start it again if needed.

Hi there,

Let’s wait to see what the plugin support say first 🙂

From the screenshot, it looks like something they would need to fix on their end.

[Norman]

Ok, thanks.

Evidently, they don’t respond to support requests. I just looked at reviews and while the plugin works fairly well, I don’t think a response will be forthcoming.

If you have an answer, that would be great but if not, I guess I just won’t use the list view.

[Leo]

Maybe try a different plugin?

I tried a number of them but none were so good as that particular one that won’t display the remainder of the white space. Disappointing for sure, but thanks for the help anyway.

Hi there,

if you want to activate that plugin and point me to the page it is on i can take a quick look.

Hi David,

I appreciate it. Here’s the front page and you can see the plugin activated going down the left in list view – https://churchletters.org/

Try this CSS:

.DisplayCategoriesWidget .dcw_c1,
.DisplayCategoriesWidget .dcw_c2,
.DisplayCategoriesWidget .dcw_c3 {
    float: none !important;
    width: auto !important;
}

Totally brilliant. Definitely works.

I have a few css items in now. Is there a way to place a comment somewhere so I don’t lose track of what they are for?

[David]

You can include the comments within the CSS like so:

/* Fix overflow issue with Categories Widget */

Thank you David for your help.

Have a great day.

[David]

You’re welcome – you too
