Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Ok, working on the main screen here.

Can some tell me how I can clean up the HUGE gap from the main page. If I go to other pages, The blank gap from the header to the first line is not the same?

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Check your admin > tools > defines page editor > main_page.php > for extra leading lines:

<p /><p><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="5"></font></p>
<p align="center"><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="4"><strong></strong></font></p>
<p align="center"><font face="georgia,times new roman,times,serif" color="#000066" size="5">

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

OK, I think?

Any idea on why the "home" and Login" are so small?

Do I look for the leading lines in the admin section?
or php files?

still learning so bear with me!

Thanks
Peter

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Check your css, your logoWrapper height is set at 200px, which is far higher than the image itself.

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

check your includes/templates/yourtemplate/css/stylesheet.css

You have:
#logoWrapper{
background-image: url(../images/header_bg.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #ffffff;
height:200px;
}
Height should be set to 150px

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Also, there are may extra <p> tags in your main_page as suggested by Kobra, you should remove them. When you are at the Define Page Editor, remember to set text-editor to plain-text instead of html to be able to see and edit those.

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Kobra,

Ok, I got it. I deleted the extra "red stuff" in text editor.

Looks like I moved up a bit.

Just trying to clean the rest.

Thanks...

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Try setting height in css for this to auto:

#logoWrapper{
	background-image: url(../images/header_bg.jpg);
	background-repeat: repeat-x;
	background-color: #ffffff;
	height: auto;
	}

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Kobra, set it to auto will not work, because the div will automatically shrink to the size of the content, not the background image, which is not what we want here.

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

I found the spot where to change the sidebar font.

Went from 10px to 8px.

But the change previous, change my font colors in the side bar and some pages?

Also, the home and login are small again.

Anyone take a guess?

Thanks again!

Re: Help me adj this huge gap in the main page

Please list the changes you want to make, if possible, take a screenshot of the page and comment on it. This will be very easy, we just need to know exactly what you want to accomplish.
