You were right... I've tried removing everything that references the section-row3 as well as bits and pieces here and there. None of it works..
It seems that box is the 'main content' box. and removing references to that 'main content/body' basically removes it from the rest of the pages on the site. So not only does it get rid of the small box on the front page, it removes all the other content from the rest of the pages b/c there is no 'main body' box to display the content.
Make sense? any other suggestions?
Can you read this thread:
http://www.rockettheme.com
It explains it all.
Let me know if you need help or if you need me to explain it if you can't read it.
Good Luck
open rt_sectionrows.php and find
$this->maincontent = '<div id="section-row3" class="section-row"><div id="section-row3-inner">
<div id="main-body-surround" class="spacer">';
Above, insert
if (!($frontpage_component == 'hide' and JRequest::getVar('view') == 'frontpage')) {
Find
$this->maincontent .= '</div></div>';
$this->maincontent .= $rowhandle;
$this->maincontent .= '</div>';
}
Below insert
}
GOOD LUCK
HI I'm still nto 100% sure what your "wrapper issue is but if it's the empty - full-width grey place holder sitting above the vulnerablilty row on eth defualt - I think Snowball is onto something - you may have some empty or othe rmodule in :either user 1 / user 3 / left / right //breadcrumb/ main 1 to 6 / inset / 1 or 2....
look at these in detail - see which has something "on" / enabled / publised on your default menu item
PLAN B - otherwise if you are using front page as yoru home page - then go to menu manger and click on thsi menu itme and set eth numbe rof artaicles to show (in params on right - to zero - i.e. 0
let us jnow how you go (ps - sorry I'm a lazy typist)
setting the number of articles to 0 doesn't seem to do anything and i don't see any other modules turned on in any user position.
I removed the following from the template.css and it removes it from every other article on the website. But again.. I only want to remove this bordering from the front page..
Ok I think what is happening is basically the borders of main content are showing - even though you have no content - but it actually looks like there is some content - in fact it looks like a space somewhere. DO you have some article with just a sapce in it somewhere? Or a space above a readmore link or something?
I think the solution lies in using the frontpage component - setting show articles to nothing and if the border still shows then some conditional php in the index.php of the template or an alternative template for the front page will be needed.
So try this first -
Goto menu - main menu (or whatever the default menu is - teh one with the asterix)
select the HOME menu item
once in there - change type to frontpage and select on right - show NO articles on right hand side
If this doesn't work then copy the entire template and change the index.php so there is no content in it and rename the template assign this template to home menu item.
But you should also check with rockettheme as they are commercial and should be able to help you out with this - as there is probably a line of conditional code that can be added toe the current template index.php to make the front page border not show when the front page is empty etc.
it seems that you are only using modules on the frontpage and no content items (articles).
that's why the mainbody area is empty and leaves that white box.
please go to > extensions > template manager > affinity and in the parameters find
"display frontpage component" and set to "hide".
just wondering, which version of the template are you using? try the latest one 1.5.2.

Finally I have read the thread on this thoroughly in Rocketheme and the only way it was resolved was by editing the php file we were discussing, and by disabling any unwanted modules - especially those in position 6 and 9. Do you a have poll residing in one of these positions, do you use Jomsocial?
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO
Its been a long struggle, but i went back through and tried some variations... AND what i found is that using the original index.php with the edited section-rows worked!

Try removing this part of your code from the index.html file in your template.
Make sure you do a back up first. Basically you want to remove the id to section-row3.
I would also add some padding to this element too:
.feature-block .feature-pad {
margin-left:15px;
}
The text needs some padding or did you want it like that?
Try:
.feature-block .feature-pad {
margin-left:15px;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-left: 10px;
}
