Full Version: Removing top whitespace?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
So im designing a new theme and I've come across a problem.

Im trying to remove the whitespace here http://prntscr.com/b05m46 and ive fixed partial issue with the body in the css with removing line-height:1.4 and I cannot seem to find how to remove this whitespace.

This causes issues with making a dark theme. Yes I do understand I can just change the body background to match what im trying to do but I find this a lot more please to just remove it.
Check your header template, most probably it is from there.
Also can you give the website link so that it can be faster.
Ive checked all the templates and I can't seem to remove it my best option was to add a margin of -20px to the container.

Hi,

You have echoing character &#65279 in your header template, that's why there's a small gap. I suggest you to use notepad++ to edit it and set the encoding to UTF without BOOM, then paste it to your header template.

&#65279

is the Unicode Character 'ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE' (U+FEFF). It may be that you copied it into your code via a copy/paste without realizing it. The fact that it's not visible makes it hard to tell if you're using an editor that displays actual unicode characters.

One option is to open the file in a very basic text editor that doesn't understand unicode, or one that understands it but has the ability to display any non-ascii characters using their actual codes.
Once you locate it, you can delete the small block of text around it and retype that text manually.
