  Have you made any additions in the last few days to your sidebar?

  Yes, added link. Would that change the CSS?

  Was the link added to the links widget, or was it put into a text widget?

  Text widget. I removed it and it still is without the white background.

  Just found out, the “archives” when moved to the end of Column 1 rather than second entry widget, put the white background back. Interesting and would like to know why that happens when we rearrange widgets?

  Since all of your pages and posts are exhibiting the same behavior, it is something in a widget that is causing the problem. Since Firefox is actually correcting the errors in the HTML in the source code for the pages, I cannot track down the actual place where the errors are occurring.

  You need to to through each text widget and review the code you have and make sure there are no errors.

  Here is the validation report if you wish to use it as reference: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Freformedwomen.wordpress.com&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.654

  See the validation report. There are problems in text widgets. Any problem in a text widget will cascade down into other widgets and the page itself and cause issues. I would start by looking at the widget that was right above the Archives widget.

  Thanks so much for your help. I moved the Archives widget and decreased size of RSS feeds so it is working for the present time. It may be that this particular theme does not handle a large quantity of widgets due to the layout.

  I wouldn’t think that should break the theme really or surely we would have heard of it in the forums by now.

  You are welcome though.
