Excessive Whitespace

Hey,

The AP Pagination plugin is creating excessive whitespace at the beginning of my articles and there is no way for me to delete it. The support from my theme has already looked at the problem and made sure that the theme itself is not causing it.

I already reached out to you guys through the WordPress forum, here is the thread:  https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excessive-whitespace?replies=5#post-8789446

I do have 1 additional question: is this plugin compatible with PHP 7.0? When I updated to 7.0 the pagination buttons would download a file called 'download' rather than open the actual page. I reverted the update, so my website does not do this right now, but I was wondering whether this is a known problem and whether there is a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,

Lex
