Remove white space in Wordpress home screen - html

I have a Wordpress child theme and I'm a bit frustrated at the excess white space between my image slider and footer. I've tried editing the style sheet in a few different ways
footer {
margin-top:-10px;
padding-top:-100px;
}
I've also tried:
.vc_row.wpb_row.vc_row-fluid {
margin-bottom: 0 !important;
margin-top: 0 !important;
}
I see in the inspect element that it's this <section class="wpb_row vc_row-fluid block">. I'm confused about how to eliminate this white space.
Here's an image of what it looks like (my site isn't live yet) http://imgur.com/4vdRWBj
Thanks!

It's hard to tell without seeing your source. Have you tried adjusting bottom padding like so?
.vc_row.wpb_row.vc_row-fluid {
padding-bottom: 0 !important;
}

Light Grey Issues

I am having a problem with one of my web pages that I can't seem to fix, a light grey color appears before the header picture as you can see here: https://victory3d.teachable.com/p/japanese-alley-3d-game-environment-creation:
I need to have a white space before the hero header content and so I added this code:
How can I modify it so that grey color doesn't show?
in the html there is a div:
<div class="course-block block liquid_html odd-stripe" id="block-8017829">
it's css is:
.course-block.odd-stripe, .block.odd-stripe {
background-color: #f7f7f7;
}
you will want to change it to:
.course-block.odd-stripe, .block.odd-stripe {
background-color: transparent;
}
For the white space, you don't have to add a p tag.
Just remove the paragraph tag you added. Then add some top padding, like 75px to the hero course block.
.course-block.even-stripe{ padding-top: 75px; }
Adjust the padding accordingly.

Make Background "Boxes" more responsive

I must change two things:
Move the Header, so that it is on the same "view line" like the
unordered List.
Make a frame around every box, so that any letter
not hit the frame.
Here is the Image and the url It's on the Startpage before the footer.

Thanks for your answers.
I'm not really sure I got what you meant, but maybe trying some padding and margin might help you:
.box {
padding: 10px;
}
.box h3 {
margin-left: 20px;
}

Inline image list not aligning with text, breaks structure

So I signed up here because I have something that drives me crazy. I am sure the answer is pretty straight and simple, but I just can see it...
I want to make a small gallery for an article, showing screenshots from different video games. The problem: The list wont align correctly with the text within the content div. No matter what I do. text-align: left just gets it to exactly this position, center and right work. It is like it is aligning on the edge of a div, but there is none. Putting it within the needed <p> tags destroys the text like seen in the picture. Keeping it out of the <p> tags keeps the text like it should be, but the list is exactly at the same place. I tried inline-block, inline, position: absolute etc, but nothing seems to work. I already tried searching the other divs for problems, but I just can't find anything. Here is a picture.
This is the css:
.gallerie {
text-align: left;
width: 100%;
}
.gallerie ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
.gallerie li {
display: inline;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
Can't somehow show the HTML part here, but it's just a simple ul li list with images. The whole thing is simple, but something just doesn't.
Thanks in advance!
Edit:
So as I can't get the thing with the code right, here is the direct linkt to the page with that problem: Link to the Problem
I hope this is allowed here. Thank you to the admin for editing, I am new here, and really not used to it. Thank you very much.
So guys, in short:
wanted to add the pictures here, can't post more than two links
Edit:
Funny thing, it works when I put the ul li outside of the article tag. So I would have a workaround.
Edit: The problem seems to be within the article tag. I have both, right and left margin in there. But when I make it to margin 0px, the whole text moves left (thats why I have a margin of 20px there). I guess the problem will be a second unneeded margin.
Edit: I fixed this by taking away the margin-left: 20px; out of the article tag, and added the value to the p tag for that class instead. Works. I don't really know what the error was, but it seems fine now. Thank you all for your help.
Last Edit: You can see the working example when you refresh the link to the site. Thanks for your help.
Your problem is css padding
<ul> tags have default padding. If you set padding: 0; then the spacing should disappear.
I would say set text-align: center; and padding: 0; for the .gallerie class
Is this what you want?
Corresponding css for .gallerie
Padding Example:
.padded {
padding: 10px;
background: red;
}
p {
background: yellow;
}
<div class="padded">
<p>This is some text</p>
</div>
Try adding padding-left: 20px to the <ul> and wrap the text underneath in a <p>
Looking at the link to the page where the issue lies. Just give the .gallerie class padding:0; and a margin-left:15px; (to achieve uniform indentation).
It appears from the page that you may be attempting to wrap the <ul> in a <p>, which is not valid HTML.

Divs refuse to align

I'm fairly new to CSS / HTML, but usually can figure something out. Not with this issue though... I've spent 2 days trying to fix it with no joy
Using WP 3.9.1 and WooThemes Mystile which comes with a custom css to make changes in; no child theme needed. When I place images with captions on a page using left align, some will and others vigorously refuse. In older WP, it was always align all images left to create rows, but not with 3.9.1 it seems. I've tried everything I can think of, but those images that are supposed to be aligned left are actually right of center.
Using Firebug or Safari Inspector, I've tried to align them left and even using a negative margin-left will not place the image where it belongs. It's almost like there's some kind of page break, for lack of a better term, that is making it set right of center. Like it thinks that position is left.
I am not using any gallery or plugin, just adding images to the pages with captions in the text box, not visual. Most of my Galleries under Store are a mess. :(
Here's an example of one: Tuscany Gallery Most of the Galleries I want 2 landscape in a row or 3 verticals. Sometimes with an odd number of images I might center 1 - 3 images, but most are left align.
Any help would be very appreciated! Thanks!
Re: the Body css code
I have a few color changes and more div#attachmet_number (didn't think you needed all them), but this is about it.
:active, :focus {
outline-style: none !important;
-moz-outline-style:none !important;
}
a {
outline-style: none;
-moz-outline-style: none;
}
a:before {
outline: none !important;
}
a:imag {
outline: 0px none;
}
#sidebar .post-46 {
display: none !important;
}
article.post-46 img.alignleft {
margin: 0 1.618em 1em 16px;
}
.post .alignleft, .type-page .alignleft {
margin-bottom: 50px;
}
.post-282 .wp-caption img, .type-page .wp-caption img {
margin: 0 0 0 0.4em;
}
div#attachment_283 {
margin-left: 42px;
}
div#attachment_286 {
margin-left: 42px;
}
div#attachment_291 {
margin-left: 42px;
}
I'm not quite sure if that's what you need or not. The div#attachment_number is the image within a box with caption (title) below it.
HTML of images with caption
[caption id="attachment_516" align="alignleft" width="407"] Duomo di Pisa[/caption]
Following your comments above on your question, your fourth photo (Autumn Drive) specifically is getting pushed to the right by the bottom edge of your second photo (Duomo di Pisa).
It appears that you've added a specific width to each div in your HTML. If you were to add there also a specific, equal height to each div, then they would align and allow the divs below to float to the left.
A greater ideal might be to declare a class for your landscape-oriented divs in your CSS, define a uniform width and height there, and assign that class to all landscape-oriented divs. That way, you could easily change that width and height in one place, and it would apply to all divs with that class assigned (and multiple classes can be assigned to a single div; just separate them by spaces, like class="landscape framed dark" for example).

How to remove blank header

I'm designing a website for my company and we're using a wordpress template. We've been able to modify the template to make it full screen (& full width), however, we can't get rid of the blank header that is seen in the screen shot below. We've added custom CSS style into our style sheet, which has helped, but did not eliminate the problem:
CSS Style we added:
.page-template-template-fullsize-php #header { margin-bottom: 0; }
Any other advice would be very helpful as we're looking to clean up this aesthetic flaw on our website.
Screenshot:
Website Address: http://visualicreative.com/products/advertising/web-commercial-html/
This will help your CSS:
#content .entry-header {
display:none;
}
#content {
padding: 0px 30px 30px 30px;
}
/*changed from padding:30px; */
You really need to tweak your theme. You've got a lot of blank code in there that is creating gaps (including the blank header).
You have some inline code that increases top padding:
<div id="main" class="clearfix zIndex" style="padding-top: 108px;">
Then all of this under the entry content:
<p><a name="top"></a></p>
For your article directive/element if you use margin-top: -100px; you can shift it up by 100 pixels. More here.
In one of your template files that has been used on that page, there is a
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 class="entry-title"></h1>
</header>
empty header which causes a little more space. The rest of that additional space is because possibly in the same file just one line up of your header element, you have an <article> element with the id of #content which has padding:30px;
You can change that padding style to
padding: 0px 30px 30px 30px;
just to get rid of the top padding.
Hope this helps.
You have 108px of padding at the top of div#main.clearfix.zIndex. By removing or lessening that padding, you can affect how close to the menu bar your main div is.
Change the padding of .nav-full-width #main and you are good to go. also .entry-header has a margin, change that too.
I visited that web page and I recognized to there is many different type of levels to header.You can fix and delete some of them.However, there is a one way to fix,You should insert #content css veraible to padding-top:0px;.Also, you should delete unnececarry div and p lines from pure html.One of the unneccecary code line is in the following segment;
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 class="entry-title"></h1>
</header>
More over, there 2 empty p tags on the pure html.You should delete them.I tried it on the browser and it displaying,whatever you like.
