Weird Jagged Grey Shadow On Most Pages

  • I’ve had a hard time finding my problem in the forums because it’s very hard to explain. For a long time now, there has been a weird jagged shadow on all our pages on the right hand side down the whole length and I don’t know when or how it started. It’s off-white in color, slightly darker then the page and covers slightly less then half the page. It’s not a straight line, it has a jagged unevenness to it and it’s exactly the same on each page. It’s awful looking and this is an organization that gets many visits to the website for registrations of all kinds. Without allowing to give you the site url, I don’t know if anyone knows what this is or what I’m explaining. I have a widget for registration on one page, a pop up button on each page and a video on one page but all of these were added after the shadow had already appeared and most of our pages are just text. Does anyone know what this is and what I need to check for or do?

    Try switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Seventeen.) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue.

    If that does not help, try deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).

    Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks.

    Go to https://www.floridaflute.org/FFA and click on just about any page on the whole website. As I mentioned above, the dropdown images, the widgets, pictures, were all added AFTER this first happened. It just seemed that one day a long time ago, it appeared on all the pages.

    Thank you for any help.

    This CSS will fix it:

    #content .content_wrap .content_wrap {
  background-size: cover;
}

    To add CSS:

    • If you are using WordPress 4.7, use the “Additional CSS” option in the customizer.
    • If your theme has a custom CSS option, use that to add the CSS shown above.
    • If not, install the plugin Simple Custom CSS.

    Learn to use the Chrome Developer Tools to help you see and test changes to your CSS.
