Twenty Fourteen: Gap missing above static page using full-width template

[zoonini]

When the full-width template is applied to a page with a featured image, the gap between the featured image and the top black bar is not present, like it is in every other type of view. Example:

If a static page with featured image, using full-width template is set as the front page, the gap is present as expected:

Without a featured image the gap is present either way.

Confirmed with Obenland that this is probably a bug.

Confirmed. it's a bug and the gap shouldn't be there.

Addition of style to remove gap above featured images when shown on homepage.

The rule added in 26694.diff​ is already there, so no need to re-add it.

We should just change the selector. Either remove the .singular part, or add another one for .full-width.home. 26694.2.diff​ goes with the former.

[SergeyBiryukov]

26694.3.diff​ goes with the latter, just in case.

26694.2.diff​ results in the gap in IE8 due to the next selector (in line 523) not being specific enough:
tags/3.8/src/wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen/css/ie.css#L518​

26694.3.diff​ doesn't have that regression.

For what it's worth, I found that this issue occurred whether the page template was full-width or default.

Nonetheless, when I applied the patch the gap was removed as expected.

Twenty Fourteen: fix gap above static pages, props SergeyBiryukov. Fixes #26694.

It seems, that the gap is missing between posts too, because featured picture often hides tags of the post above. Tested in wordpress.com with an empty content sidebar.

lancewillett and I decided that we would be leaving all bundled theme tickets for 3.9. Given the timeline (and lack of severity) we won't be doing a theme update before then.
