The CSS stuff -

Find -

#main_content_section {
text-align: left;
padding: 10px 12px 120px 12px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
background: #1b1b1b;
}
#main_content_section:hover {
text-align: left;
padding: 10px 12px 120px 12px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}
#main_content_section::after {
content: "";
display: block;
clear: both;
}
/* Footer is now full-width by default. */
/* The footer with copyright links etc. */
#footer {
margin: -130px 0 0 0;
padding: 2px 0 5px;
background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);
border-bottom-left-radius: 8px;
flex: none;
height: 130px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 8px;
color: #bd9851;
width: auto;
text-align: center;
}

Replace -

#main_content_section {
text-align: left;
padding: 10px 12px 10px 12px;

background: #1b1b1b;
}
#main_content_section::after {
content: "";
display: block;
clear: both;

Ok, I was wrong. :o

Ah! Wasn't within #footerfix! I've thought something didn't look right but it worked so I gave up on it. LOL

Haha now just adjust the css with the above css and you are good to go on that.

Why do you say that? It looks all good to me.

A lot more space at the top than the bottom.

EDIT: On some pages more than others...

Ah I gotcha, you can adjust the padding as needed. Something like 10px on the bottom would be about right.

Note it will vary depending on margins and padding of other sections aswell. #main_content_section being the main one, which you could just remove the padding from the bottom of.

A few ways of going about it haha.

EDIT :

There also seems to be a <br> below the quick reply which is causing the extra space.

Honestly, the sequence of the HTML in the php files like index.template.php has always confused me. I'm 'Old School'. Things go in a certain order when coding but that not the same with SMF. Personally, I find myBB MUCH easier to code. And can very easily migrate SMF themes to myBB without much problems at all.

I can upgrade the SMF themes to myBB without much of a problem at all. I've done it. And may eventually do it again, if not to get people interested.

I can agree, MyBB's theme and template system is much easier to work with. I remember converting my first MyBB theme (Blooming Red) to SMF.. that was a learning curve and a half XD.

Sadly MyBB is behind the times nowadays. (Not even responsive by default)

Xenforo is also a-lot easier in my opinion.


Hopefully I can help you get more use to the SMF template system :). So if you got questions do not be afraid to ask :).

Edit : Using Notepad++ instead of the built in editor is a start :D .

I haven't played with Xenforo in quite a few years. I've been testing software since the mid-late 80's. Windows, a lot of the old games (which I still have on floppies or on my Pc), forums, blogs, CMS's, etc. That what I do when I used to get bored and still do...on occasion! LOL

Now, Since I 've got into themes I've stuck with that...and security issues.

I can relate XD.

You ever play with other operating systems like Linux,BSD, and/or Solaris ?

Bocool

Yup! I've played with a lot of them. I used to be a tester for Steam when they started making it for linux. ;)

I have a ton of Steam games from years ago. Half-life, Counter Strike, etc. I also have a ton of old shareware games on my PC like Doom, Rise of the Triad, the original Wolfenstein, etc. and they still work and play them once in a blue moon. LOL

I used to run gaming servers, etc. ;)

Bocool

That's how I got into PC's. I thought they were for games back in the mid 80's. I've found the 'internet' and could download them for free. Getting them to work right required a bit of learning how to code...dBase, DOS, Machine Language, etc. But I got away from that.

I've even made a few of my own games back then. LOL I made a Super Mario type game where the crack addict would jump for crack pips and crack and kill the drug dealers! LMFAO People used to tell me that I was not right in the head. LMAO

Haha that is awesome.

My biggest addiction gaming wise was Starcraft/Starcraft Broodwar.  I made UMS maps and mods for it for the longest time. Heck it was the map making community that introduced me to Linux haha.
