How to position css post items properly when using grid display

Question

How can i make the #post-date , #post-author-name elements appear like how they do in this image below:

instead of this messed up page in the pic below:

the full code is slightly big so i've pasted it on the codepen snippet below (it wont show the post like that bcs it uses the reddit api to show posts from a subreddit) https://codepen.io/salahmak/pen/RwwOjMV

or:

 // This file is required by the index.html file and will // be executed in the renderer process for that window. // No Node.js APIs are available in this process because // `nodeIntegration` is turned off.

Answer 1

One thing I would recommend is changing post-bar , post-author-icon , post-author-name , and post-date to class instead of id since you may be showing multiple posts on a page ( id should only be used once).

Add the following css to post-bar :

.post-bar {
     display: flex;
     flex-direction: row;
}

Then if you wrap the post-author-name and post-date div they will display as block on top of each other next to your post-author-icon div:

<div class="post-bar">
    <div class="post-author-icon"></div>
    <div class="post-info">
        <div class="post-author-name">Name</div>
        <div class="post-date">Date</div>
    </div>
</div>

---

EDIT

also, something that might make your life easier is instead of relative position:

.post-author-icon{
    position: relative; 
    top: 9px;
    left: 15px;
}

Try using margins instead:

.post-author-icon{
    margin-top: 9px;
    margin-left: 15px;
}
