Genesis Outreach Nav Bar error after Genesis update

[Jethro87]

Hi!

My site, http://www.mealime.com, using the Genesis Outreach theme looked fine before I recently installed the Genesis update.

Now, as you can see, my nav bar has stretched in height, and when you hover, the white hover styling is the size the nav bar should be.

I've played around with css but I can't seem to figure it out. Any suggestions?

Thanks so much!

Hi,
I found the culprit. You've got some plugin called Member Mouse or something. It's pumping out this bit of CSS:

.wrap {
  padding-bottom: 20px;
}

That's a very bad call on the plugin developer's part - to think that he/she can generate CSS for a very common class like "wrap" and not mess something else up. I'm sorry to say it, but many plugin developers are great PHP coders, but make pretty bad decisions with CSS, either through ignorance or laziness.

I've never heard of that plugin, but if it has a setting for padding, or a place to edit its CSS, you may be able to get rid of that.

You're welcome! Much of my work consists of doing triage on malformed plugin output. 🙂
