    The part of my post that has the --More-- tag in it creates 26 pixels of extra space in the post. I'm sure it's an easy CSS tweak to get rid of that. Any help?

    Looks like my thread got buried. Any CSS gurus that can help out?

    First of all it always helps to include a link to your site.

    Use Firebug or Web Developer tools to inspect the element by right-clicking on it.

    The more tag link in CSS should look something like the following, in which case I have it set to not have any margin or padding on the bottom. You probably have extra space below because of margin/padding.


    #featured-post-2 a.more-link {
    border-bottom: none;
    clear: both;
    display: block;
    font-size: 16px;
    margin-top: 15px;
    padding: 0px 10px;
    text-align: center;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    }
