If you will compare two Letterpress installations:
J2.5 http://walnutforkalpines.com/alpine-25/
J3.2 http://holmwoodgoatfarm.com/hw/ (under development)
you will see that in 3.2 the spacing of content and modules butts up against the edge of the page rather than being spaced away from the edge as in the 2.5 site. If you click on the link to "Senior Does" or any of the articles in that category list on each site you can really see the difference.

I had the same problem with a few other templates. I wanted to use Nocturne for the J3.0 site but everything, modules and content, butted up against the outside edge. No border all the way around as you see in your demo Example Style #3. Sorry, I don't have a site using Nocturne for you to look at. I should have contacted you earlier while it was still up.

Thank you for any suggestions you can give me.

Forgot to mention - I have a 3.2 site using Virtuoso and the spacing problem did not show up so far.

Hello

It appears the padding for the article area of your template is been removed by your Joomlashine extension which is loading the following CSS..


#main {

    padding: 0 !important;

}


CSS file: http://holmwoodgoatfarm.com/hw/components/com_imageshow/assets/css/style.css

Removing or disabling this extension should resolve the issue.

You could also try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters however this may effect other areas of your template...


#main.block_holder {

    padding: 20px 20px 5px !important;

}

I disabled the Joomlashine image show extension and it made no difference. I added the CSS code and it fixed it with no ill effects so far.

When I have time I will do a clean Joomla 3.2 install on my own domain, without the suspected extension and try some of the templates to see what I get.

The Joomla 3.2 site with Virtuoso that is not having any problems does have the Joomlashine extension installed and enabled.

Your site still appears to be loading the same CSS file from the extension. A plugin still enabled maybe?

The issue is a combination of Joomla51 using the non unique #main div ID and Joomlashine applying !important to the same div. So both to blame really :whistle:

The one joomlashine extension reads "disabled" in the plug-in manager but the launchpad for setting up the slideshows still appears on the Control Panel. When you click New Module the extension comes up as one of the module types available.

I don't know how to uninstall it. I don't need it.

I made a new J3.2 installation and installed Letterpress. Looked good. Uploaded JSN Image Show and lost the spacing so that's definitely the culprit. I tried to uninstall but I get the error message that it's a core component and can't be uninstalled.

Lots of lessons learned so it's all good.

Thank you again for your help.
