With every transition between articles the container for the blog showcase module gets huge for a fraction of a second. This occurred as a result of our latest easyblog update (major update from an older version). This is very disruptive to a user scrolling down the blog posts. Please see http://gardentowerproject.com/news/towerpower-blog to experience the issue.
Thank you,
Joel
Hey Joel,

I've checked in your site, it seems like your current template styling conflict with Easyblog so causing this issue, can you temporary disable with your cloudflare cache system from your server and provide us with your FTP access so we can better have a check on this css issue?

Hi Joel,

There have a css conflict with the template, you will need to insert css codes below into your templates stylesheet.

[gist type="php"]
div#fd.eb .eb-showcases .item.left {
float: none;
margin: 0;
width: auto;
}
[/gist]

Chang,

I just entered FTP access credentials through https://stackideas.com/dashboard/site, I would greatly appreciate if you can make the css edits to work with the updated easyblog themes.

Thank you very much,

Joel

Chang,

I refreshed the site cache and the issue is still present. That should be the correct template for the site. Where should we go from here?

Thank you for working with me on this.
