      Hello Wes and friends…

      Wes, this is my first post to the forum. I’ve recently purchased the Epik theme, and truly love it. Well done!

      Of all the folks on the forums, I’m probably one of the most novice. But I’m getting there…mostly self taught and learning from these forums all the time.

      There was a post recently that asked this very question, yet it is closed to replies, so I had to start a new string. Sorry about that!

      For reference, my site is http://50d.36d.myftpupload.com/

      HERE’S MY QUESTION:
      I would like to remove the white space on the homepage both above and below the SLIDER WIDE. I did what was suggested in the other post, but it didn’t seem to work. I’d like there to be a static image, and look exactly like the other person’s site (http://69.195.124.209/~fabsfabi/)

      Can you advise, please?
      THANKS!

        Welcome!

        Try and add this to your style.css file for the space on top of the slider –

        .home .head-wrap {
        	margin-bottom: 0;
        }

        That should fix it. I don’t see any space under the slider, did you already fix that?

          Wes,

          Thanks for the reply. So, I have gone through all the other posts and did everything suggested, including adding the code you just suggested. Still doesn’t seem to work. Maybe I’m adding it in the wrong place? But it’s there, and nothing changed.

          But as I’ve been trying to figure this one out, something else got messed up. On Home Feature 3, the top space is now missing. I’ll investigate, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

          Yes, I was able to fix the white space on the bottom, just not the top of SLIDER WIDE. Thoughts?

          Thanks again!
          Chris

            It looks like you got it working, right?

                  Hi Wes, I’ve put the code above

                  .home .head-wrap {
                  margin-bottom: 0;
                  }

                  and it did eliminated the space at the top of the slider widget, as you can see here (http://vigilantesorcamento.com.br/). But I couldn’t eliminate the spaces at the right, left and below! I’ve already tried margin-top:0, margin-right:0, margin-left:0, but none of these worked. Could you help me?

                  Tks!

                    The widget you’re using is set at 1140px wide and when you view in a smaller browser the width changes to 90% which will leave about 10% on the sides. If you want a full width image, then you can add it in the “Slider Wide” widget area.

                      Wes, I’ve put the jpeg at the slider wide widget area, and at least in my browser (Chrome, Windows) it didn’t work (http://vigilantesorcamento.com.br/). There are yet spaces in all sides. The picture is 1280 x 399. Is there anything else that I should try?
                      Tks!

                        The space underneath the slider isn’t coming from the slider itself, but the div outside of of that widget area. The spacing is there by default in case you wanted to add multiple widgets in that section….this would keep them separate from each other instead of being too close together. You can adjust that by editing line 1168 in your css –

                        .slider .wrap {
                            margin: 0 auto 20px;
                            padding: 0;
                            width: 1140px;
                        }

                        Change the 20px to 0 and that will remove half of it.

                        The other half is from line 1174 –

                        .slider .widget {
                            margin: 0 0 20px;
                        }

                        Change the 20px to 0 as well, and that will remove the space under the slider area. Let me know if that works.
