Hi there,
I am using startup template and I am really happy with the results.
However, I would like to shrink the gap between certain elements in the template.
For example, the vertical gap between the text in the image show module and the "Find Out More" button and also between the "Find Out More" button and the image shown below it.
I would also like to just shrink the gaps between the modules generally on the homepage and would welcome a pointer on how to do this.
The website url is http://www.wooshping.com
Many thanks for any help you can provide,
Rupert

Could You please post screenshots and mark those gaps?
Would You like to remove them completely or just reduce (if reduce, hoe much)?

Thank you!
Attached is the screen shot showing the 2 areas I want to reduce. I don't know by how much exactly. I'd like to experiment to find the right balance. Is that possible?
Thanks again!

To use forum attaching option You need to first upload the file and next to place it inline, but the screen you provided will do.

Please edit: /templates/gk_startup/css/override.css and add at its end:
Play with both 10px values to modify the top gap.
Remember to enable "CSS override" in template settings - advanced section.
- Code: Select all
.gkIsWrapper-gk_startup .gkIsText span.gkLine {
margin: 10px auto 10px auto !important;
}

Oh, to fix the bottom gap you need one declaration more:
This way you reduce size of whole element, and image under the button is attached to bottom of elements container.
- Code: Select all
#gkIs-gk-is-87, #gkIs-gk-is-87 .gkIsImage {
height: 880px !important;
}
This way you reduce size of whole element, and image under the button is attached to bottom of elements container.
