Hey JasonBC,

How is Font Awesome enabled? By plugin or did you enqueue in functions.php? It would be helpful if you included the code you tried to use in the text editor. The text editor doesn’t support <i></i> so it’ll strip them out.

Hey Denise006,

Have you checked widgets? If you change themes, your old theme’s custom widgets won’t usually show up, although they may end up in the deactivated widgets. Your theme may also be hiding content in the custom options panel if it has one. Good luck!

Hey there lynmark!

It might be easier for you to just find a theme that offers a layout that you want, rather than making these changes. Either way, for anyone to help you out here, we need to see your site to know what you’re dealing with! So URL…. please? ??

Hey there!

Perhaps this is what you’re looking for?

Try searching with “frontend post submission” or “guest post plugin” for more options.

All the best!

Hi Ammar93,

If the theme you are using doesn’t offer this type of styling, it may be the easiest option for you to simply change themes. To customize the theme you are currently using to create these boxes would require a bit of html and CSS. A quick look through the theme repository might turn up something that gives you the styling you want.

Hi Julian,

I don’t have any working experience using this plugin, but it may be what you are looking for:

By default the html gets stripped out of excerpts and this plugin is supposed to keep it (and therefore your formatting) intact.

Good luck!
