    Hi Guys,

    I have white space in my widget area. I am using the Balance child theme.

    I have a Aweber form in there, that seem to be causing the problem.

    How do I reduce the white space?

    Thanks

    I have managed to reduce the white space but the Categories part, has lost it's spacing. This is the code am using:

    .sidebar .widget {
    border-bottom: 0px solid #ddd;
    margin: 0 0 -800px;
    padding: 0 0 550px;
    }

    I have adjusted the number quite a bit.

    Remove what you changed and instead add this to your theme's style.css

    
    #af-form-4600362 .af-body { padding-bottom: 30px!important; }
    

    Your form is adding inline <style>...</style> tags which are hard to override, which is why we need to use !important.

    Thank you Swright. That worked like a charm!
