Hi Guys,

I hope I'm in thre right forum...

As I am new to all this, I am trying to stack up, one-under-the-other, two four-column sections on a page. It won't work and they all merge.

Do I need to put some kind of page break between the two sets of columns? If so, what's the magic code?

Thanks,

B

Hi there belenenses,

>> I am trying to stack up, one-under-the-other, two four-column sections on a page

That sounds like a css question to me. Are you stipulating these separate DIV's float: left/right; and setting the width's so that they are fitting the page. The other thing to do is make sure that you set the <br /> are set to clear: both; so that it separates where you want it to.

Check out or post this question in the css forum too. Good luck.

Cheers,
MRb

Hi,

Many thanks for your response.

However, I'm using a theme that has custom shortcodes. The one for 4 columns is:

[one_fourth] [one_fourth] [one_fourth] [one_fourth_last]

But I cannot work out how to use this twice and put some padding between the two. I tried your <br /> idea, but it isn't enough. Any ideas? I'd rather not touch the css if I can help it!

Cheers,

B
