    Hi Folks,

    Here’s the old site that I’m reproducing using Enfold: http://www.sqldownunder.com

    You can see the new one here: http://sqldownunder.com/index.php/sql-down-under-home-page/

    What I seem to be struggling with, is that even though I haven’t added any spacing, there seems to be extra padding or margins all over the place. Is there a basic setting that I’m missing?

    Regards,

    Greg

    Hey Greg,

    Can you please point us to which spaces exactly you want to reduce?

    Best regards,

    If you compare the old and new pages, you can see all sorts of extra space, particularly around the text areas. I have a text layout as the top item in the visual designer but the text doesn’t end up anywhere near the top. Same for the next things under it.

    Hi,

    Yes, the elements do have spacing, which is for better web design options, and to make sure that when an element is empty, it is visible!
    Space is good, space if your friend. It helps make a better and more readable site.

    Space isn’t good if you’re trying to make most of the page immediately visible on first viewing on typical screen resolutions. Having extra space automatically inserted doesn’t seem sensible. It causes a need to scroll when there actually isn’t a need.

    How can you remove it? If it wasn’t there, I could add it if needed, but when it’s auto-inserted, how can you remove it if you don’t want it?

    Regards,

    Greg

    Hi,

    You can reset the space with CSS rules to the elements and make all margin / padding to zero.
    That should work.

    Best regards,
