 * Hiya. I am nearly done modifying the twenty-eleven theme for my liking.
 * I was wondering though, what is the best way to remove unnecessary linespaces
   after the content of the post?
 * Best Regards.

 * Oh dear – you’re not going to like this…
 * Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. First [create a child theme for your changes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).
   Or install a [custom CSS plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css).

 * I am aware of this, esmi.
 * Could this be good?
 * .entry-title {
    clear: both; color: #222; font-size: 26px; font-weight: bold;
   line-height: 1.5em; padding-bottom: .3em; padding-top: 15px; }

 * Actually those values were quite fine. I was to remove a linecarriage or so, 
   after the “post content”. So the distance to next post is nearer.

 * If you look at my site: [http://paradoxuncreated.com/](http://paradoxuncreated.com/)
   you will currently see that there is a big space between the line separating 
   the posts. I want to reduce that.

 * You need to adjust the bottom margin & padding on posts via your custom css plugin
   or child theme.

 * No actually that wasn´t it either. I´ll keep looking a bit, and see if there 
   is an answer here later.

 * Not padding and margin? So this doesn’t resolve the problem;
 *     ```
       .hentry {
        margin-bottom: 0;
        padding-bottom: 0;
       }
       ```

 * That is better, but there is still a linespace there I consider too much.

 * No, it’s a CSS border style.

 * It is possible to reduce the spacing around this line-separator? (Please look

 * I don’t know by how much you want it reduced. I’m asking for you to state how
   much, because I’ve already recommended some code that didn’t satisfy you.

 * A bit over half a (text)line, to closer to a line.
