Hello,

I am also seeing this happen with EasyDiscuss latest version. I just installed the new version of ED and this happens where I see a big white space between the menubar and EasYDiscuss main area.

Screencast: http://screencast.com/t/jReNGefF8ID

This is a new template called RT Hadron from Rockettheme and this leads me to believe it may be a template issue. ???? Not sure. But it happens with both EasyBlog and EasyDiscuss after posting new items.

Hello Randall,

So sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Actually yes this is a CSS setting by your template.

#system-message-container {

margin: 25px;

padding: 15px 0;

}

I can't disable this for EasyBlog and EasyDiscuss only. The following CSS affects your whole site

#system-message-container {

margin: 0 0 0 0 !important;

padding: 0 0 0 0 !important;

}

Hope this helps.

Thanks!

Adelene,

I asked for some assistance from the Tech Support at Rockettheme and DanG checked into this big gap issue when posting with EasyDiscss and Easyblog and here is the feedback:

The gap between the components and the menu happens when I use the following:
Post Topic and Write a Blog in the ShowCase menu. For some reason the component mainbody drops down after the post. Big gap shows. It restores later, but I am trying to get it so this doesn't happen.

From DanG:

If you examine the white gap with FireBug for Firefox or Chrome Developer Tools you will discover this is the rt-drawer area where Joomla system messages are displayed. It seems EasyDiscuss uses this DIV but if there are no errors -> no system message -> leaves a white gap.
When you refresh the rt-drawer is returned to it's default zero-height.
Check your settings in EasyDiscuss for error messages.
It's possible to display:None rt-drawer for that page but then you won't see any system messages from EasyDiscuss.

So DanG thinks it is an EasyDiscuss issue with error messages.

How can this be changed so the main body doesn't drop down after posting from Easydiscuss or Easyblog. Is there a way to turn off the error messages or what can be done?
