Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.site/messages aka Inbox -- it's shifting the whole page including the base theme by about 20px down and 40px to the right. I can maybe give you some more feedback on that if it helps any.
This is a Rootcandy bug. It defines padding for all elements with the messages class. However, when you are on example.org/messages, body does contain the class messages (like it does for all url's) and is therefore padded.
The definition below probably needs to be updated to only match divs or whatever it needs to match, but not the body tag. Please create a new bug for Rootcandy and include my error description or even better, link to this issue.
.messages, .help {
background-position:10px 13px !important;
background-repeat:no-repeat !important;
min-height:37px !important;
padding-left:44px !important;
padding-top:10px !important;
}
As a general advice, confirm any visual bugs first with an official theme like Garland and consider reporting an issue for the broken theme if it does work with Garland.
There is a screen grab of the issue attached to the mentioned thread. Not sure how easy it is to fix as both the theme and module use the same div names.
See what you think.

berdirSmall correction.
The class is not added to the body tag by privatemsg. This is a core feature because of the path (/messages). And it should be easy to fix, only apply that to specific html tags :)

sign commentedsorry it took so long,
fixed in dev, thank you, should review the rest of the style sheets if they don't collide with other modules names as well.
Comment #3
akayani commentedI have only had a very quick look after updating the modules but I still see a spacing error. Is this the error that was fixed?
See attached
Comment #4
sign commentedI see you are using custom theme colour through colour module, so you will need to visit theme settings again and re-save (re-generate) your colour scheme
otherwise the stylesheets are generated and stored somewhere else with your colour preferences based on the old style.css
hope this helps
