I’ve seen other threads but I’m using SiteOrigin Slider – not Meta Slider?? (different?). Anyway, I have two sliders next to each other on a page and a Text widget right under both. There is a ton of space under the slider image and the text. How can I remove? thanks- https://www.theshowroomatrubenstein.com/bath/

Hi Lisa
Thanks for reaching out.
If you briefly switch from your current theme to a default theme like Twenty Seventeen, does the issue resolve?
Please, give the above test a try and let us know how it goes. Thanks.
HI- It looks like it's happening with other themes too.
Can you briefly show me with Twenty Seventeen? I can check now.
I’d rather not. After I switched it and switched it back I had to redo some things in my footer.

This is in interface theme
Sure. It’s hard to say without inspecting myself, my guess is that there is a conflict between the theme and the slider widget, both are using jquery.cycle. I can confirm if I can inspect the issue with a default theme activated. The slider is assigning and inline height that’s greater than the image height. I don’t seem to be able to recreate that issue locally.
The free version doesn’t automatically include jquery.cycle like the pro version does. I can’t test with the pro version. A quick way to resolve this might be to install Smart Slider 3, create your slider via the Smart Slider 3 interface and then insert it into the page.
If we’re able to inspect the site in Twenty Seventeen and can confirm it’s a jquery cycle issue, you could then ask the authors for a method of dequeuing the conflicting script. We’d have to confirm the issue first though.
Okay, thanks. It isn't happening on the home page where I also have a slider. I imagine that makes it even more unclear what the problem is.
Thanks for your understanding. Conflicts like this are rare but can happen. Assuming my guess is correct.
The home page appears to be using Smart Sliders, is there a SiteOrigin Slider widget on the page that I’ve missed? If so, please can you direct me to it.
Nope, my mistake. Smart Slider 3!
Sometimes, it’s quicker to around a problem than solve it. If you don’t mind using Smart Slider 3 on the problem page we’ve been looking at, that’ll most likely be the quickest fix for this situation.
Yep, already on it. Thank you!
Super, thanks. All the best.
