    Hi -

    I inserted the 'recent posts w/ thumbnails' widget into my cloriato pro site.
    but the image's size continues to be wrong. (see picture)
    How can I make the thumbnail smaller in the widget and keep the full-size image in the blog post? - I want the footer to fit 3 recent posts without expanding the footer area.

    Thanks!

    unfortunately I cannot do that at this moment as I have maintenance mode activated.
    is the attached screenshot enough for you to understand the issue?

    Thanks again.

    Paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

    Code:
    .widget_inner.lebo.last img {
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    }
    Adjust its value as per your requirements.

    Thanks for your reply.
    It worked.
    Now, is there any way I can make the text excerpt longer?
    As of now, it is between 8 and 10 characters long. - See screenshot

    Thanks!

    Thanks! That worked out!

    For some reason, only one thumbnail is appearing in the footer although I have set featured images for all of the posts (see img).
    Could you help me with this?

    Thanks again!

    Hi -

    I could figure it out myself. Thanks!
    One more question: is there any way I can set the footer excerpt to be as long as the line, instead of setting the number characters displayed?

    Thanks!

    The only way to do that is put max possible number value in your excerpt it show your large text also.

    In the above given answer we provide a solution to increase excerpt from 10 to 30, Increase that value to your max value.
