The link below is where to find my website that I am making for a university project and for a client.
https://homepages.shu.ac.uk/~b7009049/wordpress/
Once the webpage loads up, you will be introduced with a page title populated with an image and two buttons. One will lead you to the About us and the other will take you to services. Click on the services button as that's where the problem is please.
Basically there is a white gap and I want the image below to completely fill up the page. Like a full screen except that you are not pressing F11 .
I don't know where the issue is. If I remove the header page, it does not do anything to clear the gap. So I don't think the header is the problem.
I am using fusion slider + a plugin called layerslider. If that helps.
I can provide a screenshot of what I am editing upon request if needed.
Thank you very much.
You have two things producing white space at the top of https://homepages.shu.ac.uk/~b7009049/wordpress/services/
One is padding applied to the "main" element. You can get rid of that with CSS:
/* REMOVE MAIN TOP PADDING ONLY ON THIS PAGE (id-2546) (AT LEAST FOR NOW) */
.page-id-2546 #main {
padding-top: 0;
}
You might also want to get rid of the padding at the bottom of #main element on this page - padding-bottom: 0, of course
That will still leave a 20px white bar at the very top, produced by a stray 'p' element that has a bottom margin of 20px. Though this paragraph happens to contain a jQuery script (which probably shouldn't be there), there's another stray p element further down the page - also contained within "ls-" elements - also producing a 20px white separation between two full-width image elements, that happens to be empty.
I don't know exactly where these p's came from. You might have to dig into the applications involved - both Layer Slider and, I think, the Fusion Page Builder - and how they were deployed here, to remove the unwanted separation where it originates.
If they can't practically be cleaned up, you might have to correct via CSS again. Just to get rid of the effect on display on this page, you might try
/* REMOVE MARGIN ON POST PARAGRAPHS ON THIS PAGE */
.page-id-2546 .post-content p {
margin: 0;
}
You could also try something like the following, if you were concerned about affecting other ".post-content" ps outside of Layer Slider.
/* TARGET LAYER SLIDER .post-content p TO REMOVE WHITE SPACE */
.page-id-2546 .post-content .ls-fullscreen-wrapper p {
margin: 0;
}
Another approach would be to apply a negative margin to .ls-fullscreen-wrapper:
/* TARGET LAYER SLIDER WRAPPER TO REMOVE WHITE SPACE*/
.page-id-2546 .ls-fullscreen-wrapper {
margin-top: -20px;
}
Without actually working on the installation or examining it more thoroughly, I couldn't say for sure that the code I've provided would be sufficient and also wouldn't produce undesirable consequences, but it might be a start. You could add the snippets to the Customizer Additional CSS box, and see how things turned out.
ADDITIONAL NOTE AFTER COMMENTS
I've gone back to the page and it seems that you have successfully added code eliminating the 20px post-content p margin, but I don't see anything applied or applied and overruled regarding the 90px top (and bottom) padding on #main.
I don't know how exactly you're trying to address that problem. I previously recommended utilizing the Wordpress Customizer (assuming you're in Wordpess 4.7 or later) - see https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-easily-add-custom-css-to-your-wordpress-site/.
From inspection I can see that the unwanted padding in question is added via the theme/Fusion stylesheet. The Customizer will add your new CSS to the underlying html, after other stylesheets have been loaded, so should override duplicated selectors. If it's still not taking, you could try, adding !important to the new styles. I think most coders would view this method as a kludge, but all of this after-the-fact correction effort is kludge-y.
/* LAST RESORT KLUDGE TO REMOVE 90px TOP PADDING ON #MAIN ON IDENTIFIED PAGE */
.page-id-2546 #main {
padding-top: 0 !important;
}
If that doesn't work - if inspection of the element doesn't show the code being applied at all, for instance - then I'd look to caching issues and peculiar theme characteristics, not to mention typos...
What worked for me was adding this code to my css
.ls-overflow-visible {
overflow: hidden !important;
}
in my case the white piece above my menu was not caused by the padding but by an overflow that was only there when I switched to full width modus. You could of course delete this code:
.ls-overflow-visible {
overflow: visible !important;
}
from the plugin css, but it will return when you perform an update.

I am attempting to style the horizontal rule elements on my site (or separators, as Wordpress likes to call them). I have added the CSS to my style sheet, but for some reason, the styling is not applying to all instances of horizontal rule.
I am very new to web development and this is my first time amending style.css. I feel I may be missing something obvious.
I have added the following to the top of style.css:
hr {
background-color:#06185F !important;
height:0.5px !important;
}
I expected that styling to apply across all horizontal rule elements on my site. However, it appears to be applying inconsistently, as seen here: https://emotionallyhealthyschools.org/whole-school-approach/
The middle of the three separators I have used in the body of this page is showing with a different style to the other 2. Please advise?
The css seems to be fine - However, it's actually the middle hr that is displayed correctly with a height of 0.5px.
I would actuall refrain from dimensioning below 1px because of potential unintended renderings due to rounding errors. If you add
min-height: 1px;
the hrs are rendered with the same height.
add the CSS in bottom of the style.css
bootstrap is adding some styling, including a border-top value to your hr.
add border-top: none or border-top: unset and it should work as expected.
Also change your px-value to a full px.
with pixels you either have one or not, there aren't half-values.
I've noticed there is a small amount of padding on one of my containers that i would like to remove entirely however the code i am implementing doesn't seem to be working.
CSS:
.elementor-container elementor-coloumn-gap-default {
padding-top: 0;
}
I think i may have the name of the element wrong. My website is www.monoalarms.co.uk/wp and i am trying to remove the padding from the container that contains that 5 buttons. it is directly under the header image.
You are looking padding in wrong container,
please try next css -
.elementor-column-gap-default>.elementor-row>.elementor-column>.elementor-element-populated { padding-bottom: 0; }
Seems your padding goes from banner
their could be many other css styles overriding yours. Remember CSS tries to take the last styling, so make sure yours is loaded last. You might need a more specific tag i.e 'body .elementor-container elementor-coloumn-gap-default', right click element and inspect in chrome, at the bottom of the browser you'll see the exact CSS tag it uses.
I am trying to make a print-friendly resume. Everything is working, except for an issue regarding the background image.
I do not want to have any margin on the print page, since otherwise the background image looks messed up:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/h2zttd8u6r6hq0g/Screenshot%202015-01-08%2014.38.14.png?dl=0
However, if I do not use any margins, the background looks good but I am unable to do any margin on the second (or other pages):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/16vgu3nahfgeipr/Screenshot%202015-01-08%2014.38.55.png?dl=0
body {
margin: 30px 0;
}
That works for the first page, but unfortunately this does not work for any page breaks. Is there a way to do padding/margin in relation to the top/bottom of a print page?
Edit: sorry for the hideous example, but this is basically the code:
http://jsfiddle.net/yugv84qw/
If you press print and save to pdf (in Chrome at least), you'll see that the background fills the entire page. However, when you include
#page {
margin: 1cm 0;
}
You will see that the margin I want works, but then the background also uses that margin. In other words: I want the background to stay page filling, while there is a top and bottom margin for text on every page.
You are fairly limited by the vendor implementation of the CSS paged media module, that said, you are able to use the module to target the first page by using the :first psuedo selector, e.g.:
#page:first {
margin: 0
}
Should support / lack of implementation prove an issue- you will need to resort to adding your content into a series of elements which match the output page dimensions, then removing the margin/padding on the first.
Sadly, the control of printing from the web, even in this day and age, is not an easy process.
I've checked other topics but I can't seem to figure this out. Testing this site here: http://www.mf.jlscs.com/
When in portrait view in Mobile Safari, I can scroll to the right to blank, white padding. I don't want this.
In landscape view, this scrolling isn't there and it renders as I'd like it.
I have no idea what is causing this mysterious push. I've tried to eliminate overflow-x, but that doesn't do the trick. If I eliminate overflow-x on each container, then this same effect is allowed to happen for every container in the page. Any ideas?
Just adding a border to some divs can cause the layout to change.
Add this to the bottom of your css to find the rogue element:
* {
background: #000 !important;
color: #0f0 !important;
outline: solid #f00 1px !important;
}
I also made a bookmarklet that does this through javascript so it can easily be used on any site. http://blog.wernull.com/2013/04/debug-ghost-css-elements-causing-unwanted-scrolling/
This is most probably caused by either one of your structural elements overshooting your body width. Look for code that is something like width: 100%; padding 20px; or something which would make it shoot out.
I suggest putting a red border on all the main divs and seeing which is the culprit and extends to the edge.
Indeed, this problem is due to "rogue" elements which extend outside of the document width for some reason.
One method is to use the CSS above, haven't tried, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to spot the elements using the borders.
A different approach would be to run this JS code in the console to find them:
Array.prototype.filter.call(document.querySelectorAll('*'), function (node) {
return node.clientWidth + node.offsetLeft > document.documentElement.clientWidth
});
This will return an array of all elements whos width + offset (distance from the left) are bigger than the clientWidth.
You would then need to inspect the elements and find out why they are behaving like this - in my case, the footer had width:100% and padding:10px, which caused its width to be 20px larger than the document width.
Interestingly enough, this was only seen on iPhones, not on Androids.
I would suggest downloading Web Developer for Firefox and just turning on Outline > Outline Block Level Elements.
I am unable to get the white space at the bottom of this page to disappear. I have both min-height and height tags in body. Any suggestions? Thanks!
http://womancareolympia.webs.com/
I find it quite remarkable that out of 6 answers, none of them have mentioned the real source of the problem.
Collapsing margins on the last p inside #fw-footer is where that extra space is originating from.
A sensible fix would be to add overflow: hidden to #fw-footer (or simply add margin: 0 on the last p).
You could also just move the script inside that last p outside of the p, and then remove the p entirely; there's no need to wrap a script in a p. The first p (#fw-foottext) has margin: 0 applied, so the problem won't happen with that one.
As an aside, you've broken the fix I gave you in this question:
CSS3 gradient background with unwanted white space at bottom
You need html { height: 100% } and body { min-height: 100% }.
At the moment, you have html { height: auto } being applied, which does not work:
(This happens with a window taller than the content on the page)
The problem is how 100% height is being calculated. Two ways to deal with this.
Add 20px to the body padding-bottom
body {
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
or add a transparent border to body
body {
border: 1px solid transparent;
}
Both worked for me in firebug
In defense of this answer
Below are some comments regarding the correctness of my answer to this question. These kinds of discussions are exactly why stackoverflow is so great. Many different people have different opinions on how best to solve the problem. I've learned some incredible coding style that I would not have thought of myself. And I've been told that readers have learned something from my style from time to time. Social coding has really encouraged me to be a better programmer.
Social coding can, at times, be disturbing. I hate it when I spend 30 minutes flushing out an answer with a jsfiddle and detailed explanation only to submit and find 10 other answers all saying the same thing in less detail. And the author accepts someone else's answer. How frustrating! I think that this has happend to my fellow contributors–in particular thirtydot.
Thirtydot's answer is completely legit. The p around the script is the culprit in this problem. Remove it and the space goes away. It also is a good answer to this question.
But why? Shouldn't the p tag's height, padding and margin be calculated into the height of the body?
And it is! If you remove the padding-bottom style that I've suggested and then set the body's background to black, you will see that the body's height includes this extra p space accurately (you see the strip at the bottom turn to black). But the gradient fails to include it when finding where to start. This is the real problem.
The two solutions that I've offered are ways to tell the browser to calculate the gradient properly. In fact, the padding-bottom could just be 1px. The value isn't important, but the setting is. It makes the browser take a look at where the body ends. Setting the border will have the same effect.
In my opinion, a padding setting of 20px looks the best for this page and that is why I answered it this way. It is addressing the problem of where the gradient starts.
Now, if I were building this page. I would have avoided wrapping the script in a p tag. But I must assume that author of the page either can't change it or has a good reason for putting it in there. I don't know what that script does. Will it write something that needs a p tag? Again, I would avoid this practice and it is fine to question its presence, but also I accept that there are cases where it must be there.
My hope in writing this "defense" is that the people who marked down this answer might consider that decision. My answer is thought out, purposeful, and relevant. The author thought so. However, in this social environment, I respect that you disagree and have a right to degrade my answer. I just hope that your choice is motivated by disagreement with my answer and not that author chose mine over yours.
I had white space at the bottom of all my websites; this is how I solved the matter:
the first and best thing you can do when you are debugging css issues like this is to add:
*{ border: 1px solid red; }
this css line puts a red box around all your css elements.
I had white space at the bottom of my page due to a faulty chrome extension which was adding the div dp_swf_engine to the bottom of my page:
<div id="dp_swf_engine" style="position: absolute; width: 1px; height: 1px;"></div>
without the red box, I would have never noticed a 1px div. I then got rid of the faulty extension, and put display:none on #dp_swf_engine as a secondary measure. (who knows when it could come back to add random white space at the bottom of my page for all my pages and apps?!)
Try setting the height of the html element to 100% as well.
html {
min-height: 100%;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
body {
min-height: 100%;
}
Reference from this answer..
This will remove the margin and padding from your page elements, since there is a paragraph with a script inside that is causing an added margin. this way you should reset it and then you can style the other elements of your page, or you could give that paragraph an id and set margin to zero only for it.
<style>
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
</style>
Try to put this as the first style.
The problem is the background image on the html element. You appear to have set it to "null" which is not valid. Try removing that CSS rule entirely, or at least setting background-image:none
EDIT: the CSS file says it is "generated" so I don't know exactly what you will be able to edit. The problem is this line:
html {
background-color: null !important;
background-position: null !important;
background-repeat: repeat !important;
background-image: url('http://images.freewebs.com/Images/null.gif') !important;
}
I'm guessing you've put null as a value and it has set the background to a GIF called 'null'.
There is a second paragraph in your footer that contains a script. It is this that is causing the issue.
It is happening Due to:
<p><script>var _nwls=[];if(window.jQuery&&window.jQuery.find){_nwls=jQuery.find(".fw_link_newWindow");}else{if(document.getElementsByClassName){_nwls=document.getElementsByClassName("fw_link_newWindow");}else{if(document.querySelectorAll){_nwls=document.querySelectorAll(".fw_link_newWindow");}else{document.write('<scr'+'ipt src="http://static.websimages.com/static/global/js/sizzle/sizzle.min.js"><\/scr'+'ipt>');if(window.Sizzle){_nwls=Sizzle(".fw_link_newWindow");}}}}var numlinks=_nwls.length;for(var i=0;i<numlinks;i++){_nwls[i].target="_blank";}</script></p>
Remove <p></p> around the script.
(class/ID):after {
content:none;
}
Always works for me
class or ID can be for a div or even body causing the white space.
I had the same problem when parsing html to string. Removing the last <p></p> (and replacing it with an alternative if desirable, like < /br>) solved it for me.
I faced this issue because my web page was zoomed out to 90% and as I was viewing my page in responsive mode through the browser developer tools, I did not notice it right away.
