I don't know how but suddenly white space appeared under website menu.
Please check website www.quoteradar.co.uk and help me I'm worried and have spent many hours.
This is due to a break in your WordPress theme.
Your mobile navigation menu is being displayed by default and looking through your CSS, it shows that there is nothing in place to hide it until the device resolution hits a certain point.
Your best choice would be to email/phone/contact ElegantThemes who are the developers of the divi theme that you're using and to request a fix from them. Considering its a paid theme, id expect support to be available.
Other than that we can't really help you as you the CSS is minified and would take a large amount of CSS, media queries and trial and error to get the page to work as it should

After changing website domain this issue with page margins has started to appear on certain pages. (might not be page margins looking for some direction)
I've tried checking standard things like uninstalling plugins etc and have come to the conclusion its something to do with the theme. We are using a child theme but in regards to php my knowledge is VERY limited.
see example;
https://blueskyeventhire.com/categories/catering-equipment-hire/jack-stack-104-plate/
There is a opacity: 0; on the component on the left side. That is not a margin.
The theme I am using has a slider -- a panel of automatically changing images to display a topic that the user can choose -- but it only shows a few slides. I want to extend it to a dozen slides. I did simple text searches to determine which files in the theme are used code files to provide the functionality to the slider. That was the easy part. I was able to extend the code from the few slides to 12 slides.
Now comes the more difficult and hidden part. As I see it, each slide has two parts that are not hardcoded. First, each slide has a caption -- a text description. Secondly, each slide has a URL associated with it that is where the browser goes if the user clicks on the slide. These two things are not hardcoded in any of the PHP or other files, as far as I can tell. They can be edited by the admin in the Drupal backend admin settings.
So I assumed that these fields are somehow set and retained in the database. But I did a search on a downloaded copy of the database and I did not find this text.
Please advise. What additional work do I need to do to complete this task?
I suppose I could just forge ahead. Obviously, this data is being stored somewhere. Maybe they are stored in the database in an encrypted form for security reasons. I could do an FTP upload of the site theme files. But then what? Do I uninstall the theme and then reinstall it? Do I just deactivate it and then reactivate it? How do I make my code changes work?
The theme is called "impact_theme" and as far as I can tell all the code for it resides in
sites\all\themes\impact_theme
The README.txt file for the theme is:

I made a subtheme according to this page: https://www.drupal.org/docs/7/theming/creating-a-sub-theme.
I logged in to the Administrative Dashboard and I made the subtheme as the default theme.
And then the website immediately crashed and I am unable to see anything apart from "HTTP ERROR 500".
What do you think I should do now?
For completeness sake, I will list here the screenshots I made when I was comparing my modifications to the original theme.
I am thinking what I should do now is try to step back and see if I can narrow down the point where the website crashes. But in order to do that, I wonder if it will do any good to just modify the files. I mean, the subtheme is already set as the default theme. How can I undo that without being able to log into the Admin Dashboard?
First, slides are stored in theme settings, so you should go to Appearance -> Your Theme -> Settings to edit them. That's however not very good way to store the variables that shouldn't have definitive number of values. Also slides are more site content then theme settings.
I would define new content type called "Slide" or something, add all the values one slide needs (picture field, description, link...) and use the View to collect those values - loop over them. That way you can have any number of slides. You can also add some field for ordering slides etc.
Also, I wouldn't use picture field directly (to display image uploaded by admin), but I would add image style for slide, to scale that image to proper dimensions. That makes life much easier for admin - he doesn't have to use some image editing tool to scale each image manually.
That's my suggestion - what I would do.
Second, site is "made" of files and database, so any content it displays must be in one of those two parts.
And third, start from just inheriting the them and see will it work and then change it step by step, so you can notice easier what causes the problem. Also if base theme is not public one (it won't get updates and so) you can change it directly.
And about error 500 - error can be logged or displayed. Run phpinfo() to see where is php.ini file. Edit it and allow at least error login. Or for you development environment even better allow error displaying.
I am making a redesign of my clients website through the CMS wordpress.
They want to keep the same theme, so I would need to make some changes to the basic theme options etc.
Every time I try to open the theme_options page it loads a blank page. A completely white screen, and by inspecting I can see that there is NO html what-so-ever loaded. not even the wordpress frame.
After this accident happened, I have tried to update all their plug-ins without any luck, and I have tried to deactivate the plug-ins without any luck.
I have a Wordpress website, and the page names are listed at the top. On a PC, when I hover over some of my pages, it displays more child pages assigned to that certain page that I can click on. However, if I visit my website on a touchscreen device such as an iPad or Android device, I find it impossible to click on the child pages under the parent(I have tried holding my finger on the parent page as well). Is there any plugins that I could install to make those pages/drop down menu accessible for touchscreens? or any other solutions?
I apologize if this was hard to understand, and any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
You're going to want to use a mobile optimized theme. It can be difficult to find one that looks good at full resolution and on mobile/touch devices, they might cost money, or you might need to use your current desktop themes for other reasons. What you can do is install WPTouch which displays a special mobile/touch optimized version of your size for those users, but leaves your full desktop site theme alone. I believe this will require the least amount of effort and allow all of your content to be navigable.
Check out WPTouch here.
The broader question about building a responsive site or navigation system that works on mobile/touch as well as looks good at full screen width is probably goes beyond what you need, so I offer you this plugin. Good luck!

I'm using Drupal 7 for a site I'm making, but when I am using the dashboard/backend of drupal the modal box doesn't fit on my screen and causes a wierd scrollbar (FF & Chrome etc) bug that I've never seen before on any site!
See how the bottom down arrow has disappeared?
On some screens this means that I can't see the bottom of the page, hiding the save buttons.
It works fine with drupal standard themes, but not on my Zen subtheme.
Has anyone seen this before? or has anyone got a theory on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
You can get rid of the overlay completely by disabling the Overlay module.
