There’s too much white space. (Don’t worry, I will be editing the dividing line color).
I saw some other threads from like 2017 where they were editing it with CSS, but it seems like that CSS doesn’t work anymore.
The discussion is about making the topic list more compact. Johnny_McIvor started by saying there’s too much white space and asked for help. merefield provided a link to a meta discourse topic as a basis for the solution. denvergeeks then provided some CSS code to make the topic list more compact, which Johnny_McIvor found to be exactly what he was looking for.
Johnny_McIvor then asked how to make individual posts more compact as well. After some clarification and providing images to show the desired changes, Arkshine provided CSS code to reduce the whitespace in individual posts, which Johnny_McIvor thanked him for. The CSS code provided by denvergeeks and Arkshine can be used to achieve a more compact topic list and individual posts.
Try this as a basis.
Oh that looks awesome
Here is some CSS for that… (let me know if it works!)
.topic-list .topic-list-data {
padding: .1em .5em 0 !important;
line-height: normal !important;
}
.topic-list-main-link,
.latest-topic-list-item .main-link,
.topic-list .main-link {
font-size: var(--font-0) !important;
}
.topic-list-main-link a.title,
.latest-topic-list-item .main-link a.title,
.topic-list .main-link a.title {
padding: 0 !important;
}
.topic-list .num.posts a,
.topic-list .num .badge-posts {
padding: 0 !important;
}
.topic-list .link-bottom-line {
display: inline !important;
}
.topic-list .excerpt {
margin: 0 !important;
line-height: normal !important;
}
.topic-list .posters {
width: auto !important;
max-width: 146px !important;
}
Thank you so much, it looks incredible! Exactly what I was looking for.
Would you happen to know how to make the individual posts more compact as well?
Great!
What exactly do you want the individual posts to look like?
Which are the white spaces you want reduced?
You could draw arrows and write in the spaces to show me, or a before and after picture.
Also a link to the live page if possible.
Can you provide an after picture to see the css changes to the topic listings?
This should cover what you highlighted. Feel free to adjust based on the original value.
.topic-post {
.topic-body {
padding-top: 0; /* 0.8em */
}
.cooked {
padding-bottom: 0; /* 1em */
}
.post-menu-area {
margin-top: 0; /* 20px */
margin-bottom: 0; /* 20px */
}
}
Thank you.
