How to fix padding issues in the debut theme?

I’m having issues with the padding for website as there seems to be an excess of blank space between sections. Also some of the text in my product descriptions are cut off. Can someone please help?

Hey @JBACON22 .

Thanks for reaching out.

I appreciate that you have included a screenshot of your online store as that is very helpful! Did you happen to make any custom coding changes to the product page, by any chance?

Looking into the Debut theme, I noticed that there is not a way to make changes to the padding/spaces using the Theme Editor, however, you can make a change of coding to reduce the spacing between sections on the online store product page. Keep in mind that white space allows for your content to breathe and makes it easier for you customers to digest the information. A great article that goes into more depth about this is Why Whitespace is so Important in Web Design.

With that being said, since the Debut theme is designed and supported by Shopify, we can use free design time for Shopify themes to have our internal team make the changes on your behalf.

If you are interested in using the design time, you will need to login to your store using our Contact Us page. This will allow us to securely verify you as the store owner before speaking directly with a Support Advisor about the changes you would like to see.

Looking forward to your response, let me know if you have any questions.
