Help! my image banners don't fit in my page as they did before!

Topic summary

Main issue: After custom code changes, image banners/slideshow stopped adapting their height to the first image, causing large white padding. Also requested: hide the “galaxy banner with our mission” on mobile.

Troubleshooting steps:

  • Reviewed slideshow.liquid settings for “Adapt to image” height and related CSS includes.
  • An initial suggestion to replace the slideshow.liquid content did not remove the padding.
  • Clarified the target as a newly enabled bottom section with excessive white space.

Fix applied:

  • Added a CSS rule in Assets > base.css to remove enforced minimum height:
    slideshow-component .slideshow.banner { min-height: auto !important; }
  • Result: White padding removed; banners now fit as intended. Confirmation received from the requester.

Status:

  • Padding/fit issue resolved via base.css override.
  • The request to hide the galaxy/“our mission” banner on mobile was not addressed in the final solution and remains open unless handled elsewhere.

Notes:

  • Central element: CSS override to min-height for slideshow banner.
  • No other structural changes or theme settings adjustments were finalized in the thread.

So i would like the image banner section to adjust to the image and when i make the page smaller basicaly everything keeps in place

I have the image slide section and there you can see how the images should be only the image slide section has a lot of padding so or I remove the padding or I fix my image banner sizes, Thanks!

Hi @Ecolapse ,

Did you solve it?

Not yet!

Hi @Ecolapse ,

Hi @Ecolapse ,

Please change all code:

padding-bottom: {{ 1 | divided_by: section.blocks.first.settings.image.aspect_ratio | times: 100 }}%;
content: '';

Hope it helps!

It didn’t remove the white padding unfortunatly thanks for the effort you are putting in!

Hi @Ecolapse ,

I checked and it shows fine, have you checked it again?

I have enabled a section at the bottom, i want to remove all of the white padding from that one so it didn’t work yet :C

Hi @Ecolapse ,

Go to Assets > base.css and paste this at the bottom of the file:

slideshow-component .slideshow.banner {
    min-height: auto !important;
}

Hope it helps!

Yes it did thanks
