Adjusting section spacing

Control how much space your sections take up on the page using the vertical padding controls.

Locate the Vertical Padding control

In your selected section’s settings panel under Change Section Styles, find the Vertical Padding slider.
2

Adjust the spacing

Move the slider to increase or decrease the amount of space above and below your section content.
  • Less padding: Creates tighter, more compact sections

Select the width that works best for your content:
  • Default width: Standard container width that works for most content
  • Custom width: Adjust the slider to make sections wider or narrower
  • Full width: Extends content across the entire browser window
Content consideration: Text-heavy sections often work better with default or narrower widths for better readability.

Your section content now displays at your preferred width.

Common questions

Check that your image file is in a supported format (JPG, PNG, WebP) and isn’t too large. Also ensure the image has been properly uploaded to your media library.
Use the same background colors, similar padding amounts, and consistent width settings across sections of the same type. Create a style guide for your brand colors and stick to it.
Background settings apply to both desktop and mobile. However, you can preview how backgrounds look on different devices and adjust accordingly.

Pro tips

Visual hierarchy: Use different background colors or padding to create visual separation between different types of content sections.
Image optimization: When using background images, choose high-quality images that don’t interfere with text readability. Consider adding a dark overlay for sections with white text.
Consistent spacing: Use similar padding amounts for sections of the same importance level to create a cohesive look throughout your site.
Test thoroughly: Always preview your styling changes on both desktop and mobile devices before publishing your site.
