Spacing options & post formats

[Zoe]

Hi!

Love your product so much <3

Just a suggestion, I’d love to see some spacing control between the header of a widget/post and the body text – for example:
https://gyazo.com/11c204e9e76553156b97134850f6e9af
In that example, I’d love to be able to decrease the space between “Follow my blog” and “Join 372 subscribers…”

Also, I’d love an option to have mixed post formats, so that on my home page I can make the most recent post show in full, but all the older posts beneath it Masonary or smaller posts with just excerpts (see http://www.meshbodyaddicts.com for what I mean about the first post being large).

Keep up the great work!

Zoe,
I know Tom is fantastically quick to reply, but he answered the “space between widget title and widget content not long ago. I think that is what you are asking.

I think the default might be 40px, but put this in a child them :

.widget-title {
      margin-bottom: 10px;
}

I selected the 10 px distance.

See it here: site

Hope it helps

Thank you Genie! that’s exactly what I’m trying to do. I’m not savvy enough to know how to make a child theme but I’ll look into it.

Thank you!

Zoe, go here to wordpress. There is an actual Child Theme generator. I used one of the top two shown. Couple clicks and it’s done. Just open the css file it creates, and plunk that code into it.

WordPress Plugin Child Themes

Don’t forget you have to ACTIVATE the child-theme as your default theme.

If you generate a child theme like the above, be sure your child style.css file doesn’t have this line:

@import url("../generatepress/style.css");

If it does – delete it and you’ll be good to go.

Alternatively, you can download our blank child theme here: http://generatepress.com/api/themes/generatepress_child.zip

It would be a good idea to add that spacing control in the Spacing add-on – I’ll look into doing this 🙂

Had someone ask about having the most recent post show in full while the others show excerpts yesterday – still thinking about the best way to do it 🙂
