• Posts to my blog have a space between them if posted on different days.
    But if Ipost two posts on the same day, how do I add a gap / some white space between them?
    Sorry if this is very basic to do, but I can’t figure it out.

    I’ve looked at this some more without success, but can at least explain the problem better.
    At the bottom of each post is a link that says Comments. It’s justified right. What makes it justify right – because that may be the key to adding space below this comment link.
    That’s what I want to do – add some white space betwen that comment link and the next post.
    Thanks!

    In the default css:
    .feedback {
    color: #ccc;
    text-align: right;
    clear: all;
    }
    You could add
    margin-bottom: 20px;
    to that.
    That could increase the gaps elsewhere though .. so it may not be a solution.
    The spacing, while annoying, also serves to visually indicate that posts have been made on the same day.
    One way to get even spacing is to have the time of posting on each post. Find where it has the_date – it’s just inside the post div, and change that to the_time

    Podz,
    I added that code and all looks okay . . . so far ?? Thank you!
    You’ve got me worried with the “That could increase the gaps elsewhere though .. so it may not be a solution.” So far so good though.
    I think the posts running into each other is too clumsy a way to demonstrate they were posted on the same day.
    Thanks for your help!

    hi. me too, wanted to add blank space/gaps in between posts on the same day .. i managed to increase the gap on different days by using the tamba tutorial, but i can’t make it work for postings of the same day. i tried adding the tag .storycontent p { and then use margin-bottom: 40 px; and this works, there is indeed more space in between different posts, however, the gaps in between paragraps on 1 post also grew bigger … so i had to undo that, alas.
    and still puzzled … there has to be a code that says, “at the end of a post a few blank lines until another post title shows up”, but i tried what Podz suggested for the default css but no gaps showed up .. and what he feared ‘elsewhere’ did happen with the storycontent p tag ..
    ok. i’ll try again tomorrow i guess ??

    tried again. added the storycontent p { etc with margin-bottom etc.
    i have no comments, so that’s why it didn’t work when adding in the ‘feedback’ department.
    this works for now, but still looking for the best solution.
    because there’s too much blank space now in between text-pictures and i can’t really make use of paragraphs .. perhapp i should change codes in the text area again, back to the tamba tutorial ..
