Block grid problems

url: brightonwilliams.com/publications/.

I have to start this by saying this is one of many problems that has befallen my website since X and cornerstone upgrades, but as suggested by you guys, I will give you specifics.

I have two block grids on this page and since the first big cornerstone update the columns in the block grid do not show in cornerstone - just lists the block grid elements one after the other. This issue does view correctly in a browser.

However when I add new block grid items, each row has a greater gap at the bottom than the existing elements (I added one new item at the beginning of the ‘Smartmoney magazine’ section block grid and 3 new items at the start of the ‘Client Guides’ block grid). Can’t see any reason for this.

Would really appreciate your help in fixing this

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

Those spaces are from CSS and line breaks. To remove the margin caused by CSS, please add this to your global Custom CSS.

.x-block-grid>li {
margin-top: 0px;
}

And to remove line breaks, you can manually edit your block grid item’s content and make sure there are no line breaks or spaces before and after the content.

Thanks!

Hi

Thanks for the instructions - you have pointed me in the right direction. What is happening is that any new block grid items I add are being automatically wrapped in

tags which is where the extra space is coming from. This has only recently started happening since the upgrade to cornerstone. I can take the tags out in HTML view and all is good until I view the element content in cornerstone as Rich Text. It then seems to add the tags and thus the css paragraph formatting to the element. Any ideas why this has started happening? I’m following the same process as I did for the ‘pre-update’ block grid elements I created (swapping from HTML to Rich Text view).

Thanks so much for your help with this.

Hi there,

In some cases, we had to add extra tags to some of the elements due to some conflicts they introduced in previous versions.

Kindly read this response regarding the situation:

I am sure with a little bit observation you will be able to find the cases and fix things around as suggested in the reply above.

If you have problems case by case we can help you around.

Thank you.
