I am building a site using the excellent classic template. Up until now all has been smooth and the small customisations I needed to make were fairly simple. But I have hit a problem and after hours of trying to fix it am no nearer a solution. Any help is much appreciated.

There is barely any space between the Read More link and the next article header. How can I create it? I have added a near empty ghost article and omitted the read more (should this be a button?) and the space seems okay. But I need the read more button to make the site look as I want it to. Does anyone have a solution?

Hi Lorenzo

To resolve try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters (edit to taste)...


.post {
margin-bottom: 30px;
}

Thank you Ciaran,
I tried this buit there is no change. The custom css now looks like this

/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
/* Custom CSS */
/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

.post {
margin-bottom: 30px;
}

Is there anything else I should be doing? Do I need to create overides in order for the custom css to work?

Hi Lorenzo

Just to confirm, you have added the suggested CSS to the Custom CSS field, not the custom.css file?

Many many thanks . I figured what the custom css field was and posted the code. Worked straightaway.
One more thing. On the demo the read more is a lovely blue button. All I have is a line of text. Is it pretty straight-forward to change this?

Hello

Your Custom CSS field can be found by navigating to Extensions -> Template Manager -> [YourTemplateStyle] -> 'Custom CSS' tab.

Hi Mirko

Would you have a URL to an example of the articles in question?
