Is there anyway to have the FrontPage module ignore text formatting? I make the first character in all my articles a “dropcap” letter. Looks good on the article page but not on the FrontPage module. It would be great if I could somehow just display plain text…

Thanks!

Clean HTML and Clean plugins’ code would be two great options for newspro and frontpage actually.

For now, my articles, being heavy in code, usually mess with the whole website and destroy the layout, especially in IE.

Stripping tags (conditionally) is also something the K2 -and gk news pro 4- offers.

Try add this at end of template.css file::

.moduletable-newsfp span.dropcap {display:inline;float:none;font:12px/0px arial;padding:0;}

You may need to adjust in above font properties to make it similar like text

Thanks very much! That worked for the most part … just need to adjust the spacing between the letters now! Thanks again.

Ended up using this if anyone is interested…

.moduletable-newsfp span.dropcap {display:inline;float:none;font:12px/0px arial;font-size: 150%;font-weight: bolder;padding:0;letter-spacing:-2px }
