How Do I Get Rid of This Blank Space That FV Player Adds Below The Player?

Deewin 5 years, 2 months ago

Hello guys,

How do I get rid of the blank space (indicated by the brown space on the second image) that FV Player creates below the video player?

For illustration, the third image is of a different player that fits perfectly on the same spot.

Upon further inquiry, I realized that the margins of FV Player’s Skin Dimensions was a bit off. I played around with the values and realized that changing the value from 2em to 0em fixes the error.

I copy pasted the margins as they appear after editing them to my theme’s CSS editor and now the problem is fixed. This might help someone out there.

Thanks for sharing this to us.

I’ll discuss it with our development team and we’ll eventually include it to our CSS tips and fixes.

Thanks!

Hello Deewin,

please use Settings -> FV Player -> Skin -> Bottom Margin. You will first haev to switch the skin to “Custom”, which you already did it seems.

Thanks,
Martin

Hello Martin,

Thanks for your response. I have reduced it to the lowest value but still it does not take effect. However, editing the CSS works.

Hello Deewin,

I see, when you enter 0 for Bottom Margin it thinks it’s empty end puts in the default value.

We have prepared a fix for this for the next FV Player release.

To get the fix right now you can reinstall FV Player from this ZIP file: https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the FV Player plugin you are currently using. No data nor settings will be lost. You can replace it with FTP too.

Thanks,
Martin
