Themeboy Post Slider widget in header

Hi there,

Thanks for your question.

The black spacing below the photo is due to the paragraph text being long. There are a couple different solutions for this.

First, you could add the following to SportsPress > Settings > Custom CSS to increase the size of the post slider image:

.widget_tb_post_slider .orbit-container .orbit-slides-container img {
max-width: 20rem;
width: 20rem;
}

Another solution is to change the excerpt length via a child theme. The excerpt length function is in includes/theme-functions.php:

if ( !function_exists( 'tb_excerpt_length' ) ) {
	function tb_excerpt_length( $length ) {
		return 30;
	}
}

Changing that number to 20 would make the excerpt shorter and prevent the box from being too tall.

I hope this helps!

Thank you! Fixed.
