Hey there,

No matter what I set the columns padding to, the padding does not change. It always shows as the default value (2em) in Chrome dev tools.

I have tested on a brand new WP install with GP theme activated with consistent results.
```
.wp-show-posts:not(.wp-show-posts-columns) .wp-show-posts-single:not(:last-child) {
margin-bottom: 2em;
}
```
This “feels” like a bug but it’s probably me.

Thanks Tom.

I’m sure I’m misunderstanidng something or doing something wrong.

WP Show Posts shortcode is on the homepage. Changing the column padding does not change space between posts.

Thanks.

Yea, the CSS isn’t printing on the frontend.

Are you 100% sure it’s the same list? When you edit the list, is your padding value saving?

Yes it is same list.

Yes padding value is saving.

I just started from scratch with a new WP install and tried again with the same results.

However, I am using 1 column. Does gutter get applied on 1 column?

Let me rephrase my initial question….

When using 1 column, how do I control the space between posts?

Please and thanks.

The gutter will only work with columns.

However, the padding option should always work.

Alternatively, you can do this:
```
.wp-show-posts:not(.wp-show-posts-columns) .wp-show-posts-single:not(:last-child) {
    margin-bottom: 40px;
}
```
