    josh401-

    Help me understand what you mean exactly by:

    [blockquote] How do you add the areas where you post your code? I like it because I can highlight it with my mouse and copy and paste. Is that a program? [/blockquote]

    The area right under “I made a new style in my child theme css:” on your second post on that page… where you list your child css code.

    I don’t mean to be dumb but I’m still not following what your question is?

    I made that style in my css so I could manipulate text/apply styles directly in the visual editor on WP rather than hand/hard code it into the html part. Make sense?

    lmao.. Yes, you make perfect sense. What I meant is how you display it on THIS forum when you make a reply. Ken showed me how to wrap it in backticks. Yours looks darker though, and it has the scrollbar on the bottom one.

    No worries, I’ve figured out what I needed to know for now 🙂

    That extra space with the grey at top and bottom is driving me nuts…

    Anyone any ideas???

    Don’t know why it worked for Josh and not for me…

    I don’t mean to sound redundant. But add margin-top:-7px; to your #footer element.

    Make the change, test it out, and post your file back on here with the updated change if it doesn’t work.

    Also I see now that I did the wrong thing when you suggested it before…sorry! I changed padding not margin-top, duh. I am lame with CSS and instructions 🙂

    Thanks for that fix!
