Line Spacing Problems

    I’m a newbie and I’ve looked for answers to my questions here on the site but the answers I find don’t seem to apply to the WordPress Theme I’m using.

    The line spacing between the titles for my welcome page post and the body copy are way too much and I would like to reduce the space. Here is the link to my website http://www.eseaweednutrition.com/ which is still under constriction.

    You can see the line spacing problems between the “Welcome to SeaweedNutrition.com!” title and the copy below it. The line spacing problem can be seen again on the same page under the title, “Finally, a Website About Seaweed Nutrition for Everyone”. I’m a novice when it comes to html so if someone could tell me in layman’s terms what I need to look for or do I would really appreciate it.

    I’m using a WordPress theme called Delicate 3.3 by NattyWP in case that will help you find the code that I need to change to correct the problem I’m having.

    Hi mattd71,

    I noticed a few things when I took a look at your site using the Firebug addon with Firefox. It looks like header tags have been used for everything, including the text of the posts. I would really recommend removing header tags from the actual text of the posts so that you can better control the styling for headers and other text.

    You’ll want to look for properties like these in your style sheet or anywhere else you’ve added styles:

    line-height
    padding
    margin

    I would definitely suggest using Firebug with Firefox to help you pinpoint the various elements of your page and the styles that are affecting those elements.

    Hope this helps!
