Huge gap before post title

I think this is what you are referring to:

#content {
margin:0; padding:25px 0;
width:auto; height:auto;
}

Try changing 25px to 7px, and see if that is what you are after.

hi ClaytonJames, I’m new with website buidling and wordpress.could you please tell me how i can access the code from wp cpanel? I tried to click html tab from my edit post panel but sees no code. thanks in advance

found it in Stylesheet under editor.changed the value but nothing happens.anyone?

found it in Stylesheet under editor

ahhh…HA!

You’re on the right track. The built in WordPress file editor may not always save your changes due to file permissions. That is actually a good thing! You may need to pop into the theme with your ftp client and make the changes from there. It is generally quick, and usually safer than altering file permissions just for quick edits. Don’t forget to make a backup copy just in case. You can use your ftp client or your hosts file manager in Cpanel to edit the style.css and see if that does it for you.

thank you very much. I noticed the change you mentioned before.the whole content box shifted upwards not the content in that box itself. Perhaps, i should play with other values in the code eh?to see if its working

Give this a try…

.post-content {
margin:0; padding:20px;
width:498px; height:auto;
float:right;
border-left:1px solid #d9e2e9;
background:#FFF;
}

try change the padding to;

padding:10px 20px;

Does that move it in the right direction at all?

@claytonjames

Yes it moves in the right direction but it was only a small shift. I even change it to padding:0px 20px; but it still a small shift (better than padding:10px 20px; though). In fact I even tried -ve value (lol), it shifted all the way up like i wanted it to but introduce a line besides the post.weird. any other idea?

anyway, i truly appreciate your help up to this point.

Found it,found it….hahahaha… played with the code in .post-content { as you pointed out,change the width etc. turned out the line appears beside the post is kinda a box for the content and when it overlaps with the side box causes the contents to shift downward. I adjusted so that the content box not really overlap with the side box (kinda, i dont really know if thats right). hahaha. thanks again ClaytonJames.
