still trouble updating to sitebuilder core

i emailed priority support aboutthis cause i believe it wi8ll require hands on help
when i update to the sitebuilder core, i have to rebuild the front page completely, after deleting 17 weird mystery widgets that exist outside the layout
then it looks amess (i remember you told me to delete 2 classes, when i delete the 1 (couldnt remember whatthe other 1 was) its slighly better but the top margins still weird, also the tab container tabs must have anew class as they look off too, and theres other weirdnesses like the page title h1 widgets look off

i think theres an extra added containing item or something thats throwing things off as well

since i think i will need hands on help straightening this out, is there any way we could work on it colaborativly and use skype or something
anyways please see my detailed email
since my site will require some special case prep work in order to complete the update
(disabling edge server caches, resetting db cache before running integrity check or else it causes table locks that freeze the site, all covered in detail in the email)

I have got a lot of things piling up right now, so won't be able to help with this soon.

What would be really helpful would be to know what each of the individual issues are, rather than a collective "its all messed up".

i went into more dsetails in the email (and its not a high priority ..take your time)
issues like there seems to be an extra containing item or something that causes the content within it to be styled wrong, the page title widgets wich just had h1 titles also seemed to have a containing item that wasnt in the previos version, so got styled and looked weird

not only did each widget seem to have an extra containing div that made the content within it be styled strangely, there was a top margin that made a gap at the top so it just didnt seem to fit right
(i believe i used a item first of nth type or something to use a negative margin value to close that gap but the extra container screwed that up)

oh and, the tab container tabs had a new class or something

some of it, i could easily override with css and repair by changing class names, removing css etc , overriding the styling of the pagetitle class
but that extra containinbg item or whatever it was that was causing all the widgets to have "double styling" for lack of a better description was harder to figure a way around it

ok an easy example
the activity feed
the stricktly html text widgets, all were looking like they were in a styled container within themselves if that makes sense

to make it clearer, the border radiuys and box shadowing margins paddings etc were double applied so the activity feed seemed to be contained within itself ..

like i said when yoiu do have the time (no hurry and i think your in japan right so your time woukld be late night here wich is a good time to work on it)it would be good if we could colaborate so you cans see what i see and i can explain what looks wrong ...while it looks wrong
