    Hi,

    I am trying to reduce the white space / margin around the text box on my homepage.

    The homepage is: http://marieteather.com/

    Beneath the header image is some latin text. (I think it is the div.intro-text h1 ?)

    How do I reduce the margin around the text, so it is closer to the image above and the text below, please?

    Thanks!

    (The Latin text is now my intro text.)

    Hey Marie,

    There are multiple solutions detailed at Mastering Margin Collapsing but here is a quick and easy one. Simply apply a little padding to the containers to contain any child element margins.

    I hope that will work for you.

    Thank you

    Try this –
    .entry-container,
    .widget,
    #supplementary .wrapper,
    #supplementary .widget {
    padding-top: 0;
    padding-bottom: 0;
    }

    OR ===

    1) Clear the margin from h1, h2 and p

    header h1,
    header h2,
    section p,
    footer p {
    margin: 0;
    }

    2) Now apply an overflow setting to the containers header
    header,
    footer,
    section {
    overflow: auto;
    }

    3)now we can add border/padding to the containers
    header,
    footer,
    section {
    padding: 1px;
    }
