Wrong positioning of if-hasMessage causing an empty white section.

I am getting an ugly empty white section due to the incorrect positioning of the if-hasMessage code.
If I move the code to the top before the DIV, the gap is almost gone.
Question: How do I prevent future template upgrades from rewriting it?

<div id="t3-mainbody" class="container t3-mainbody">
<div class="row">
<?php if($this->hasMessage()) : ?>

<div id="t3-content" class="t3-content col-xs-12">
<jdoc:include type="message" />
<?php endif ?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />
</div>

</div>
</div>

<?php if($this->hasMessage()) : ?>
<div id="t3-mainbody" class="container t3-mainbody">
<div class="row">

<div id="t3-content" class="t3-content col-xs-12">
<jdoc:include type="message" />
<jdoc:include type="component" />
</div>

</div>
</div>
<?php endif ?>

Mmmm... still can't get it right. If I change the codes above, the "component" will be missing.
Have to revert back to the original and change module position to get rid of the white space.

mrlawrencelam Hi

That code is wrong on your site, not sure if you customized it or not because I checked the default file of this template and it looks correctly.

Here is the code of this file: /templates/ja_company/tpls/blocks/mainbody/no-sidebar.php

<div id="t3-mainbody" class="container t3-mainbody">
<div class="row">

<!-- MAIN CONTENT -->
<div id="t3-content" class="t3-content col-xs-12">
<?php if($this->hasMessage()) : ?>
<jdoc:include type="message" />
<?php endif ?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />
</div>
<!-- //MAIN CONTENT -->

</div>
</div>

you can update into your site and don't worry about updating new version of template as this code in our template package is correct already.

saguaros Yes. This is the correct code I have. And this code is printing out the whole DIV section (the whole MAIN CONTENT section) when "message" and "component" are absent. That gives an ugly white section below the masthead.

How do I skip printing the MAIN CONTENT if "message" and "component" are both absent?

Hi @mrlawrencelam

You want to remove the component and alert display, right? You can use the "skip component" in the template layout.
