There's excess white space below calendars

[Kelly]

On my pages using calendar shortcodes, there’s excessive white space below the calendars. It only happens on pages using the shortcodes. How do I get rid of this excessive white space?

Example:
https://www.colonialchurch.org/adults/classes

Shortcode used:
[tribe_events view="photo" category="classes" tribe-bar="false" limit="4"]

Thanks

Good evening Kelly and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We are sorry to hear about that extra white space creeping up on the page while you are using shortcodes.

I would love to help you with this topic.

What is going on is that the sidebar on that page has a hardcoded CSS rule that looks like this

style= "min-height: 2699px;"

Removing that rule should fix the issue, as an alternative, you could override that rule with CSS.

.tribe-is-responsive .aside_right .widget-area {
min-height: 0 !important;
}

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

Hi Geoff, thanks so much for the quick reply and finding out the issue for me. Unfortunately that code didn’t work, but I tried:

.sidebar, .widget-area {
    min-height: 1100px !important;
}

and that did work, to an extent. (I used 1100 because otherwise it shortens the sidebar’s divider bar). This is not a full solution as I would like the divider bar to extend completely, like it does by default. I’m not sure but was triggering the 2699px height on pages with calendars, but this is a solution that somewhat works. Thanks.

Good evening Kelly,

Thank you for writing back.
I am glad you were able to come up with a workaround for your situation.

Kudos for that!

This issue seems to be pretty theme specific. So, as you can guess, the extent of my help is limited.

However, I would like to offer some suggestions:

1. Consider using a child theme to perform tweaks and creating a page template just for your events shortcodes based pages
2. Contact the theme author for guidance
3. Consider searching your theme files for the 2699px value to see where it is coming from

Is there anything else I can do for you ?

Best regards,

Geoff B.

Thanks so much for the advice, I will keep that in mind. That’s all I need help with, thanks!
