Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am formatting the padding area around a Field (Price) using Blocks and inside Archive View. I was able to add Margin/Padding around the other fields except for one. See attached front end and back end screenshots. Not sure why adding padding is not working.

Is there any documentation that you are following? Formatting using Blocks.

Is there a similar example that we can see? See attached.

Hi, I see what you're saying - margins and padding do not seem to have an effect on the price block. As a temporary solution, please use a Toolset Container block to apply any necessary margins and padding, then insert the price block inside the Toolset Container block. Does this allow you to achieve the design you want?

I will reach out to my 2nd tier support team to find out more about the problem with margins and padding applied to the price block and give you some feedback shortly.

Thanks. The container block method has worked. As a follow up - sometimes there are '??' signs after the date and sometimes there are not - see attached. Any idea what they could be?

Okay I've split the ?? concern into a separate ticket, but I don't see the ?? in the screenshot you attached here. Please follow up in the new ticket with a new screenshot and we'll sort it out. Thank you!

Just a quick update to let you know our 2nd tier team has escalated this issue to the WooCommerce Views developers and asked for a consistency review. The style settings of the Price block and the Add to Cart block, for example, are not applied consistently on the front-end. Some WCViews blocks also do offer the ability to add custom CSS classes or IDs, which seems to be a nearly universal feature in Gutenberg/editor blocks. I will keep you posted as I receive more information about these.

Hi, our developers have released a round of updates that include consistency fixes for margins and padding on WooCommerce-related blocks. Please update to the latest versions of Toolset plugins and let me know if the issue is not fully resolved. If you are not prompted to update to the latest versions yet, you may need to go to Plugins > Add new > Commercial tab, scroll to the Toolset installer and click "Check for updates".
