shareaholic plugin causing gray marks in post/page

This appears to be happening to the right of any text that is italicized.

Hi ediblist! Let me see if I can help. First, the issue is specifically with the deprecated italics tag. The grey bar is not present when using emphasis, which has replaced italics.

Below is the CSS associated with the issue. It was likely included as a patch to a previous problem; so, we don’t want to open up a hole by removing it on our end (until identifying why it was added). However, we are currently working on revamping the plugin and cleaning up the underlying architecture.

.shr_compact_tick s, i {
border: solid transparent;
border-right-color: #C7C7C7;
display: block;
position: relative;
border-width: 5px 5px 0 0;
}

Now, what we need to do is override the declarations that are pertinent, which would be for the border and display properties.

Paste the following into your theme’s head:

<style type="text/css" media="all">
i {border:none !important; display:inline !important;}
</style>

Let me know if this corrects the problem.

Hi C Reign…

Thanks for your help! When I put that into the page itself, it took care of the issue. When I put it into the style.css page, it didn’t do anything. Where would I need to put it to make it universal?

Never mind. I put it in header.php and that took care of it. Thanks again!
