WordPress is undoubtedly a great content management platform and for the many use cases it covers it brings a lot of developer benefits on the table. Among the benefits, however, there are a handful of thorns sticking out and one of the sharpest ones is arguably CSS authoring which unfortunately can’t be blunted by the core team because it’s not inherently a fault within WordPress itself.
How long have you been craving for a text size setting on the default Text widget, or a background color on the Calendar widget? Did you know you could implement these yourself? And without modifying the core files? And without jeopardizing the update-ability of your website?
Yup! It can be done! Of course, some things are more easily done, and some things may be impossible to do at all. Let’s see however what is the general approach of actually doing it.

Our extremely popular fashion blogging theme Olsen has just been updated with exciting new features.
We have added a widgetized area below the frontpage slider. Place one or more widgets in to the sidebar to create a featured section on the frontpage. The sidebar automatically adapts the columns depending on the widgets you add. If you only add one it will be fullwidth, adding two will create a two column layout, up to three columns.
Along with the sidebar we have added a Callout widget which you can use to create the layout displayed on the theme’s demo, just add a title, an image and the URL you want the Callout box to lead to and you are done!
