Add Space Between Posts

    Hi all,

    I have read a few posts on this topic but can’t make any of the solutions help, and all of the previous threads are closed.

    I need help adding space at the end (or beginning) or each of the posts in my blog: https://www.aldenleonard.com/blog. Currently, they all run together. I have tried modifying margins, adding in code, and nothing seems to work. Can someone take a look and point me in the right direction?

    I am using the theme WPFolio, but it’s slightly modified for my content. I looked at the WPFolio support site but it referred me back here.

    Thanks everyone!

  • Great. To get it to apply to all your posts, and any future posts you may add in the future too, is to use the original CSS I gave:

    .notable-post > div {
margin-bottom: 50px;
}

    This won’t work with the Simple CSS Plugin because of the “greater than” symbol. To get it to work, you’re going to have to create a child theme or try another CSS plugin. (I know it was me that originally suggested this plugin, sorry about that.)

    Thanks again Siobhan! Until I have time to convert all my coding to a child theme, I’m going to just use your method of .[category name], which works beautifully.

    If I want to increase the font size of my post titles, could I use the same method? Ie.:

    .sketches-scribbles, .uncategorized, .painting {
    font-size: 14pt;
    };

    Ah, no worries. Just so you know, when you make your child theme, you won’t have to convert all your code, you will literally just have to copy and paste the snippet you’ve added to the Custom CSS plugin into your child theme’s style.css file.

    In regards to your question about increasing the title’s font size: Do you want to increase only the titles’ font (e.g. “Vacation Sketchbook,” “More RFK,” etc.) Or the font size for everything on that top line? (e.g. the dates, the links to categories etc.)

    Good to know, thanks.

    I’d like to make everything on that top line bigger. I changed it somehow while messing with style.css, and can’t figure out how to change back. I have bad WordPress habits!

    OK, you can increase it by using the following custom CSS:

    .post-bottom-title {
font-size: 1.2em;
}

    Increase or decrease the value of for font-size as you wish until you get to the size you want.

    You’re awesome and I can’t thank you enough for all your help!

    I will close this thread now.

    Great. ?? You’re welcome.

    Hi again. Just so you know, the bug in the Simple CSS Plugin has now been fixed. If you update to the latest version, the original CSS should now work!

    Hi @jaldenleonard. Sorry about the issue with my plugin. I hope the latest version works great for you. Thanks for using Simple Custom CSS!
