                    1. Copy and paste the below codes BEFORE it :
                          /*Popular Post*/
                          .popular-posts{margin-left:15px;}
                          .popular-posts .item-thumbnail{float:left;}
                          .popular-posts ul{padding-left:0px;margin-left:4px;margin-top:6px;}
                          .popular-posts ul li {list-style-image: none;list-style-type: none;display:inline;}
                          .popular-posts ul li img {-webkit-transition:all 0.5s ease;-moz-transition:all 0.5s ease;transition:all 0.5s ease;padding:4px;background: #eee;background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#eee), color-stop(0.5, #ddd), color-stop(0.5, #c0c0c0), to(#aaa));background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #eee, #ddd 50%, #c0c0c0 50%, #aaa);-webkit-border-radius: 4px;-moz-border-radius: 4px;border-radius: 4px;-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 3px rgba(0,0,0,.7);-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 3px rgba(0,0,0,.7);box-shadow: 0 0 3px rgba(0,0,0,.7);}
                          .popular-posts ul li img:hover {-moz-transform: scale(1.2) rotate(-350deg);-webkit-transform: scale(1.2) rotate(-350deg);-o-transform: scale(1.2) rotate(-350deg);-ms-transform: scale(1.2) rotate(-350deg);transform: scale(1.2) rotate(-350deg);-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 20px violet, inset 0 0 20px rgba(255,255,255,1);-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 20px violet, inset 0 0 20px rgba(255,255,255,1);box-shadow: 0 0 20px violet, inset 0 0 20px rgba(255,255,255,1);}
                          • Use the “Ctrl+F” search function again to find this code : 
                              <b:widget id='PopularPosts1' locked='false' title='Popular Posts' type='PopularPosts'>
                              .......................
                              .......................
                              .......................
                              .......................
                              .......................
                              </b:widget>
                                  • Replace the above codes from <b:widget id='PopularPosts1' locked='false' title='Popular Posts' type='PopularPosts'> to </b:widget> with these codes :
                                          <b:widget id='PopularPosts1' locked='false' title='Popular Posts' type='PopularPosts'>
                                          <b:includable id='main'>
                                          <b:if cond='data:title'>
                                          <h3>
                                          <data:title/>
                                          </h3>
                                          </b:if>
                                          <div class='widget-content popular-posts'>
