  I’m wondering how I can minimize the size of the footer on my current layout. I’m also wondering how I can minimize the space that is currently between each of my blog posts (the space generally happens at the bottom of each post). Can anyone help me with this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  To reduce the padding on the top of the footer, go to Appearance > Customize > CSS, delete all the informational text in that window, and paste in the following custom CSS.

  .site-footer {
      padding-top: 0;
  }

  To reduce the space between posts, add the following. You can change the 0 to whatever padding you like, such as 10px or whatever.

  .hentry {
      padding-bottom: 0;
  }

  Thank you, that worked perfectly! Do you know how I can minimize the space between the date and author, and the bulk blog text?

  Hi @breecrowder,

  I don’t see author name there but you can minimize the space between the date and the bulk blog text by using the following CSS code.

  .entry-header {
       margin-bottom: 10px;
  }

  Kind Regards,
