[Support request] Dispatch : problem with category

[Nicolas]

Hello, I have a problem with the dispatch model. In the WP Show posts list, when you choose the display of a category, the category list displays only a small part of the available categories. There are many missing. How to solve this problem ? Thank you for your help

[David]

Hi there,

do all those Categories have Posts assigned to them ? If there are no posts in category then those options will not be displayed.

[Nicolas]

Thank you very much

[David]

You’re welcome

Hi,
There is a large empty space on the home page between “Simple” and copyright. How can I reduce it?
Thank you for your help

Can you link us to the site/page in question? So we can inspect which specifically is causing the empty space. 🙂

You can use the private information text field to provide the details. 😀

Yes of course :

Did you mean this space highlighted on this screenshot? – https://share.getcloudapp.com/6qurBgwv

If so, that’s caused by multiple things.

It’s a combination of the content’s padding set on Appearance > Customize > Layout > Container with padding set to 60px and margin set by the Separating Space. It’s these 2 options I’ve labeled – https://share.getcloudapp.com/6qurBgop

You can set the padding bottom to 0, you then set the margin-bottom by custom CSS.

Try this one:

main#main,
div#right-sidebar .inside-right-sidebar  {
    margin-bottom: 0;
}

This combination of settings should reduce the spacing you see.

OK, thank you .
I still have two issues to resolve. I cannot display the secondary navigation menu. I can’t seem to align the “Standard” images on the home page with the “Sidebar” images

Can you provide a login so we can get past the maintenance mode. You can share those details in the Private Information field.

[Nicolas]

Thanks for your answer.
Yes please find this information in the private information.

1. For the Secondary Navigation.
The Dispatch site uses a Hook Element to ‘insert’ the secondary navigation.
Go to Appearance > Elemenents and quick edit the Secondary Navigiation element and set its Status to Draft. Or you can delete it.
Then in Customizer > Layout > Secondary Navigation set your Location to where you want the nav to be displayed eg. Above Header.

2. To align the posts with the sidebar – try adding this CSS:

#wpsp-1275 {
    margin-top: -1.5em;
}

[Nicolas]

OK thanks for your answer.
I managed to activate the menu by following your instructions but I cannot position it as on the template at the bottom of the header articles.

[David]

Oh – so you want it displayed below header element on ALL posts ? – if so did you disable or Delete the element ?

[Nicolas]

I would like this menu to be placed exactly as in the dispatch template on your website
