the link tag <a>
is inline block tags and it means it must be in one line beside other elements and should has a parent part that the parent part determines how much these inline-block elements should have margin top and button
there's two ways to do that:
convert theme to block:
#services a{
display: block;
margin-top: 8px;
}
or simply you can work with its padding
This issue is known as Margin Collapse and happens sometimes between top
and bottom
margins on block elements.
The margins of adjacent siblings are collapsed
That's why the margin doesn't work on the p
tag. To make it work here an option is to use padding-top
on the p tag.
And on the a
tag the margin doesn't work because it's an inline element. You may need to change its display
property to inline-block
or block
.
Had the same issue only margin left and roght worked solved it by changing the display to flex
The <a>
tag is an inline element and therefore cannot have a top or bottom margin. But you can solve this by applying display: inline-block;
to it.
You won't be able to set a margin on an <a>
tag without first setting it to display:block;
.
In your case, you need to do something like this:
#services ul li p {
padding: 8px;
margin-top: 10px;}
Try this:
#services ul li a{
background-color: #4972ff;
color: #fff;
border-bottom: 3px solid #779bff;
border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
padding: 8px;
position: relative;
top: 10px;
}
