So, I’ve been working on revamping the appearance of my commissions thread, but it seems that I’ve ended up with an utterly gigantic gap at the very top of the post. I’ve tried various things to try and tackle this, with the help of someone else who is good with html, but still no success. They even suggested bringing it to modbox in the case of it being a bug, however I suggested that probably wasn’t gonna be the right use of that ^^,
Sooooo, here I am, looking if anyone knows what to do with this, and why it’s being rather silly!
The thread with the basically page-sized gap:

The code:

Hello, I've tried copy-pasting your code. Trying to see if this has a gap or not first.

edit: weird! Even when the preview doesn't have a gap, the post does. Trying some things out now

Test1

Welcome to my commissions thread! Here you will find plenty of info about my Lioden comms, and see some examples of my work too!
I hope you consider buying, bumps or sharing are also appreciated too!

I do not check here too often, and sometimes forget to look, so if I don’t respond quick don’t be surprised, but I will get back to you as soon as possible! If you want something quickly, though, you can contact me elsewhere: FurAffinity and Twitter; Obsidian_Trash — or, best option, discord!

Yeah it’s super weird! The preview always seems fine, but the post has that huge gap!
Good luck and let me know your findings

I think I figured it out!
The big gap is a result of all the line breaks in the code! If you remove all the line breaks, the gap disappears.

The code originally:


The same code, after removing line breaks:

It’s a little odd to me, cuz I’m sure I did try the method of removing the gaps, but I’ll try it again real quick and let you know what happens

So unfortunately, it still seems to be giving me that huge gap. Would the gaps in the whole thing stack at the top somehow? It seems highly unlikely for such a thing to happen, though?
(Hoping my image works, it’s not showing on preview though lol) ((think it’s good now) holy shit that’s huge

Darn, okay. My tests made it look like the gaps do stack at the top somehow. I'll keep testing things out!

I can try removing all the gaps in the code, but it would make it absolutely horrendous to edit afterwards sob

Yeah, I know what you mean. If it helps, you can type markers like these to help find stuff in your code: <*!---HEADER SECTION---> (without the asterisk).

I really do think it's worth removing all the gaps, Lioden does keep track of every line break in a post and puts it in, with or without < br >

Right, I just went through and removed the gaps, and it’s sorted. That is so annoying tho :(
I really struggle reading large amounts of text so this being all bunched together and unorganised makes it worse, but it’s alright. Well, I’m glad I could get this working at least

Glad it's sorted! Wished there was an option to disable automatic line breaking when coding on here.
Best of luck in editing in the future!
