• Hi there, Thanks in advance.

    I caused this problem myself and am ready to admit I need help fixing it.

    There is no spacing in the text of my posts and I really want there to be. The text butts right up to the photos and there is no space between paragraphs.

    Where would I fix this?

    I think I messed it up when I was trying to reduce the spacing in my side bar. That looks fine now but the body of the site is all wrong.

    Thanks.
    here’s an example: http://cubitsorganics.com/2013/10/planting-autumn-garlic/

  • Doesn’t look horrible but yes, it’s pretty tight between the text and the photos.

    So some questions to help us better help you:
    1) What theme are you using?
    2) What did you do to reduce the line-height spacing in the sidebar?
    3) Are you using a child theme CSS stylesheet, or using a plugin to create and manage custom CSS, or are you directly editing the theme’s stylesheet.css file?

    Thanks Bemdesign,

    It’s a custom theme, I believe I just took a whole line of code out as it effected the whole site (this was about a year ago and I really can’t remember), I am right in the style.css file.

    Okay. Well looking at your css via Firefox’s developer tools, on line 14 you have

    *{
    margin: 0;
    padding:0;
    }

    Remove (or comment out) that CSS declaration and see what happens.

    I removed it and nothing happened and then I put it back in and changed both to 20 and still nothing change 🙁

    Are you sure you’re not seeing a cached version of your site after updating? Because when I remove it (again, using Firefox’s developer tools) it’s an immediate difference.

    I just tried again and cleared my cache to no avail.
    Tried Firefox too as I’m normally in safari.

    Thanks for your help. I agree that that looks like a good lead.

    Try changing this CSS to this:

    .entry p {
        margin: 10px;
    }

    Thanks so much everyone. I changed the line height under post and it all suddenly worked! Hurray!
