Hide 'Beautiful featured products'

Hi

I have succesfully installed the Simplicity theme (nice job guys!) and altered in to my needs. I can't figure out however how I can disable the showing of the Beautiful featured products section on the homepage (static homepage view). Of course I found the page where the content is placed, but even when I disable Frontpage and put the contents in Concept mode, my frontpage stil shows a large white space. See this image:



In the source code is visible it has something to do with the news gallery, but I haven't activated that widget anywhere afaik:

Code: Select all

      <div id="gk-bottom2">
         <div class="gk-page widget-area">
            <div class="box centered">
               <div class="gk-news-gallery">
                  <div class="gk-images-wrapper gk-images-cols3">
                  </div>
               </div>
            </div>
         </div>
      </div>


Can somebody tell me how to fix this or point me in the right direction?

Hello,

Could you please provide me with a URL to your website, either here or via PM (click the “Private Message” text underneath my avatar) so that I may analyze it? It is a lot easier for us to diagnose issues when we have a live site to examine.

You are not using this block, but paddings are still there, please add the following code into the theme’s css/override.css file (make sure to enable the “Use the override.css file” option in Template options > Advanced in the WordPress backend)

Code: Select all

.frontpage .gk-news-gallery,
.frontpage #gk-bottom2,
.frontpage #gk-bottom2 .box.centered {
   padding: 0!important;
}


Thanks! I notice that the setting for using the override option in Template options > Advanced keeps switching back to Disabled. How can I check to see if I am succesfully using the override css function?

So, you've switched this option to enabled, save the settings and option is switched back to disabled? Could you also send me a PM with backend access to your website? If this option is enabled override.css file is loaded - you can check it in your website's source.

I have made you admin. You should know the username and password

And yes, the process you describe is what I expierenced. I tried searching the source for hint of override.css being included, but can't find it.
