Recent posts, remove thumbnail

[onkartw]

How to remove the thumbnails from the recent posts ? Is there a variable to turn on/off ? Right now I have just deleted the div element but that does not align properly. What files I need to change to display just the titles ?

I put this in /layout/paritials/widgets/recent_articles.html (in the root directory of your blog not the theme dir) in order to get rid of the thumbnails and adjust the size the tiles.

recent_articles.txt

I have implemented similar change on my blog - for those interested have a look at the result and source

@mholttech Thanks for your input. Can you provide details as to why it is preferred to have such changes in the "in the root directory of your blog not the theme dir"
