Having trouble with spacing of cards with recent Hinode update

[chl33]

I'm using Hinode for my little personal blog about projects I'm working on. I really appreciate the work that has gone into Hinode! I'm not a web developer or a go programmer, so I'm still trying to figure out the right way to do things. I added a "projects" content type to group posts about a single project together, and use cards for the posts.

For example, the following markdown generates this page:

+++
title = 'Garden133'
date = 2025-06-15T12:00:00-04:00
thumbnail = 'image/front-yard.jpg'
description = "A system for monitoring soil moisture levels in the yard and garden."
+++

# Posts

{{< card class="col-sm-12 col-lg-8 mx-auto mb-3" path="/posts/garden133" />}}
{{< card class="col-sm-12 col-lg-8 mx-auto mb-3" path="/posts/garden133-hardware" />}}
{{< card class="col-sm-12 col-lg-8 mx-auto mb-3" path="/posts/garden133-radio" />}}

After the latest updates to hinode (v 1.9.0) the resulting html has "h-100" in the classes for the cards (well, I assume this is the reason), so they end-up vertically spaced very widely, with the second card starting below the page footer. Does anyone know where this may have come from or how to avoid it? I suppose I could edit the output html before I publish my next post, but I'd prefer not to make that part of the workflow.

glad you like the theme @chl33! To understand the issue a bit better, could you perhaps share a screenshot of the old situation compared to the new situation?

I suspect the h-100 attribute has heen added to fix an issue when displaying cards in a grid. Would it help if you group your cards in a card-group?

Thank you -- I just tried and it looks like using a card-group will work fine for me.

Also, here are the screenshots you asked for.

The old situation looked like this:

In the new one, the second card is off the screen vertically, below the page footer. Further cards are similarly space. Here, I've scrolled down below the page footer to see the second card.

I've isolated the issue and released a fix in Hinode v1.9.1. Let me know if this resolves it!

Yes --- the update resolves the issue. Thank you! I also like how the cards look in the card-group so I think I will keep using it for my projects pages.
