Changing padding in Hello Pro theme

[kathiemt]

I want to find out how to lessen the padding on the Hello Pro theme on my website. It seems too big, particularly between the Features widget and the testimonials widget. I'm not using the portfolio section at all. Should I be removing the coding from the CSS or is it about lessening the padding and if so, where please?

It's also too big under the testimonials section - really need to cut it down, as well as under the title of the testimonials.

In your style.css file, change the padding in the lines 2437, 3855.

To fix the testimonials section, you can either add custom CSS:

.social-proof-slider-wrap {
    padding: 50px;
}

This 50px value is the default, you can lower it to your liking.

Your browser has an inspection tool that makes it very easy to determine what CSS to change when you want to adjust spaces and such on a page. It's called the browser inspect or inspection tool. Learning how to use it will save you a lot of time. https://victorfont.com/how-to-use-your-browsers-inspect-tool/

As for the padding before the testimonials, remove the padding from the .home-features class in style.css near line 2441.

For the padding and margin in the testimonial itself, this is coming from the social proof plugin in a file named social-proof-slider-public.css. I know nothing about this plugin so can't promise this will work, but you can try adding the following to your child theme style.css or the WordPress custom CSS area:

.widget__socialproofslider {
    margin: 0;
}

.social-proof-slider-wrap {
    padding: 0 50px 50px;
}

Thanks Sachin, but isn't that adding even more padding? I've done it and changed that to 20px but not really seeing much change.

Thanks Victor, will look for that. I did try doing the inspection but wasn't really sure what I was supposed to be looking for.
