big white space on front page

Here is a screenshot:

There’s also a space above the post I’d like to get rid of.

I will try to help,
seeing your website url from the other thread, maybe this is what you need to do:

Go to your Dashboard > Theme Options, and then choose Home Layout Tab. At Homepage Layout Manager section, see if you had Portfolio Carousel positioned in “enabled” tab, move it to “disabled” tab.

I hope it would clear the white space off.

Hey,

Mastiyok is correct, you should try to disable that in Home Layout Manager. That should get rid of your space above the post.

Try adding this CSS to Theme Options> Advanced Settings and let me know if this works:

.home .page-header {
    display: none;
}

Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks to both of you but sadly no, neither suggestion worked. Also, on a narrower view (tablet/phone) the menu disappears ??

Just to clarify, I have three issues: space above post, space beside post, and menu disappears on narrow screens. Thanks.

Sorry Kevin, correction: space above post has gone now ??
But space beside (between post and sidebar) is still there ??

The space between the sidebar and the post is there because you only have one post to show. If you wish to only show that one post at full width, you can use this CSS:

.home-sidebar.clearclass0 {
    width: 100%;
}

You need to assign a mobile navigation in Appearance> Menus, that’s why your menu is not showing in small screens.

Excellent, thanks Kevin. Yes, when we have another post I’ll remove that CSS.

But I still have the menu problem. No menu on mobile devices.

Did you assign a mobile menu in Appearance> Menus as I instructed above?

-Kevin

Sorry Kevin, I have fixed that now – missed your instruction above (was distracted with the white space issue) but then stumbled across the menu fix myself – I must be getting better. Thanks for all your help.

Glad you got it sorted! I’m happy to help.
