Large White Space on Homepage in Safari

  • There is a large whitespace above the entire homepage but only on Safari. Looking at the web inspector it’s some sort of padding but I can’t figure out for what or how to get rid of it. I tried deactivating all the plugins to see if it some a problem with an update acting funny but I didn’t notice anything. Pages are built using Beaver Builder.

    Just started happening recently and to my knowledge, nothing was done to the homepage to make it start.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • The large white space is not only rendering in Safari.

    Well, I’m not sure where to start here tbh ……… there’s just soooooooo much overhead installed on this site, and it’s making it hard to sort out. Also the header styles and scripts are being rendered outside the head tags, and in the body ?? See:

    which is creating this:

    I would:
    – create a child theme for your site (BB actually provides one to download)
    – clear your BB cache bc you have CSS being loaded from the BB cache folder which risky when troublehshooting:

    – toggle off the UberMenu plugin and check for space
    – make sure your scripts are being loaded in the head
    – optimize your images:

    But – to address the problem, start but removing this tracking code from intellwp.com, see here:

    Even tho it is in the head, it is still referencing a SVG using img and src.

    That’s a start! Lol.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I know the site is nuts right now. It needs to be cleaned up. So far I’ve:
    – installed and activated the child theme
    – Cleared the BB Cache
    – Deactivated the Ubermenu plugin
    – Optimized the images

    I’m not sure how to remove that tracking code.

    One thing I’m noticing is that, even after doing all of that, the Safari page still isn’t showing any of the changes that I made. When I deactivated the Ubermenu and changed the theme, on Chrome it made those changes and they were visible, but even in private browser and cache/website data removed, it was still showing the same theme and ubermenu working unless I log in to WordPress.

    Well – re your changes, my first comment would be that hosting from GoDaddy is a beast imo. Check to see if there is some sort of cache clearing from their ‘control panel’.

    Cleaning up would be important imo, there are so many plugins installed here that can be easily handled with just beaver Builder:
    – RoboGallery
    – Contact Widgets + FontAwesome
    – ML Slider
    – Sticky Popup
    – Carousel Slider
    – Google Maps
    – MotoPress Slider
    – Ninja Forms maybe

    Check for this code:

    in your header file:
    /wp-content/themes/bb-theme/header.php
    or in your functions file:
    /wp-content/themes/bb-theme/functions.php
