Main blog page spacing issue

Hello

My main blog page is set to three columns, masonry and with a full width layout. The issue I am having is that the posts are a bit scattered on the page. I would like equal white space around all of them and a uniform grid like look on the page with three posts across and properly spaced posts going down. What can I do to fix this?

Scroll down on this page. You can see that it starts out nicely, then by the bottom there is only one post all by itself.

thanks!

Hello Chris,

Thanks for writing in!

Your blog is a bit of a mess because the post titles does not have the same height and also you image. To resolve this, please do this two things:

  • Please go to your Jetpack settings and disable the Site Accelerator (Formerly known as Photon module). This module controls the image and it is serving a cache version which will give you some more issues later on.
  • And then please add the following CSS code in the X > Theme Options > Global CSS (http://prntscr.com/evui3r)
.x-iso-container-posts .entry-title {
    min-height: 50px;
}

.x-iso-container-posts .entry-thumb img {
    width: auto !important;
    max-height: 390px !important;
}

We would love to know if this has worked for you. Thank you.

Hi

Thanks for helping. Unfortunately it didnt solve the issue. I still have random white space around the posts on the main page. What else should I try? Huge thanks!

Hello Chris,

There’s a conflict with masonry layout calculation on initial load. I have checked and notice that when the page was resize, it calculates correctly. See this: https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cqiU2JOktn. Let’s find where’s that conflict is coming from. First, let’s try a general troubleshooting step. You could try testing for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third party plugins, and seeing if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.

Let us know how it goes!
