Keep it short.

## FAQ
### Is WW4KOFI v2 lightweight?
Yes. It’s only 47 KB zipped. And, it uses its’ own local copy of the official Ko-
fi widget JavaScript library.
### Is the Ko-fi button the official button from ko-fi.com?
It sure is. The Ko-fi button widget code comes from https://ko-fi.com/manage/widgets
and it looks like this.
```
```
### How can I change the alignment for the Will Work for Ko-fi block?
You can change the content alignment by using [additional CSS](https://medium.com/@marklchaves/adding-custom-css-to-your-wordpress-website-how-to-guide-a50b474af36d).
The additional CSS below will centre justify the WW4KOFI block contents.
```
.centre-this-block {
text-align: center;
width: 50%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
```
### How can I change the style of the Will Work for Ko-fi block?
You can change the content alignment by using [additional CSS](https://medium.com/@marklchaves/adding-custom-css-to-your-wordpress-website-how-to-guide-a50b474af36d).
The additional CSS below will add slight padding to the contents and create a drop
shadow effect.
```
.style-this-block {
padding: 1.5%;
border-radius: 10px;
box-shadow: 5px 20px 12px rgba(0,0,0,.2);
}
```
Version 2.1.0 introduced the `.section__kofi` CSS class that controls the top/bottom
padding for the widget’s heading, description, and button.
```
.section__kofi {
padding-top: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
}
```
### Do I need to install the Lazy Blocks plugin too?
No. Version 2.0.0 does not rely on any third-party plugins. Lazy Blocks is deprecated
in v2.0.0.
### I’m seeing a “This block contains invalid or unexpected content” error message. What must I do to fix it?
Click on the horizontal ellipses (…) on the right, then select **Attempt Block Recovery**.
