Hi all,

No matter which dashboard I choose there is always a misalignment between center block and those on the sides. What is causing this? There is no custom HTML nor any plugin installed.

Hi Ernestas

That is strange that this is unaligned with no custom HTML or plugins.

Are you able to purge all caches in Totara as something may be being hung onto in the caches.

regards

Hi, Craig,

I think I found the culprit.

When I edit main content background colour in theme settings, that colour appears around the box. See here:


Is there an easy way to eliminate that frame? The name of the theme is Basis. It's the default one, I think.

Hi Ernestas

I tried changing the background colour in the basis theme of the main content in Totara 12 and the middle block  remained aligned at the top.

What version are you using of Totara ? 

I will ask a frontend developer if they can figure out what is happening.

regards

Hi Ernestas

The misalignment of the central block is a known issue in the Basis theme that comes from the site having the Enable style overrides option enabled. 

The workaround if you want to keep the style overrides option enabled is to add the following to the custom CSS setting in the Basis theme setting.

#region-main { border-radius: 0; padding: 0; } body.content-only #region-main { border-radius: 4px; padding: 20px; }

Regards

Wonderful, Craig! That fixed it!

My OCD and I, thank you for your assistance.
