 * Hello
 * I am in the process of building my first wordpress based site. So far it has 
   been slow going, but I am learning. One question I cannot find an answer for:
 * I turned off Comments, but now have white space where comments used to be on 
   every page. How can I get rid of this extra space?
 * Here is an example: [http://saranacreview.com/the-journal/](http://saranacreview.com/the-journal/)
 * Thank you in advance.

 * If you have not solved this problem, it could be due to the combination of padding
   and margin for your articles. You can adjust these by adding lines to the end
   of your child theme’s style.css:
 *     ```
       .site-content article {
           margin-bottom: 10px;
           padding-bottom: 10px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Adjust the numbers to suit.

 * Thanks, but that didn’t work.
 * Perhaps I don’t have my child theme set up properly or some other default that’s
   over-riding it?
 * I am trying to go through and look at all the padding and margins, but no luck
   in that one area.

 * Silly me, just had to refresh my Cache. All fixed. Thank you!
