Using advanced forum for my forum, but every post occupies a fixed height, so if post is considerably small then there is a big blank space left in the body of each post... any solution??

This is because it has to reserve space for the largest possible amount of extra information that can be shown about a user in the left sidebar.

Often you can make this a bit smaller anyway, though, and here is some css that should do the trick, when added to the bottom of the theme css file.

I extracted it from a recent site that I made, trying to take only the relevant bits. Not sure that all of it is required. The min-height settings should be the most important ones though.

.forum-post-wrapper {
  min-height: 260px!important;
}
.forum-post-panel-main {
  min-height: 260px;
}

#forum table td.container {
  height: 16px;
  padding: 4px;
}

#forum table td.forum,
#forum table td.topics,
#forum table td.posts,
#forum table td.last-reply {
  height: 32px;
}

.author-pane-label { 
  display: block;
  clear: both;
}

Kind Regards

I and others have this same issue. It's to do with a 350px in advanced_forum-structure.css
