    Hi there.

    Im a newbie. Have created a child and updated my version of wordpress and now my menu bar is not connected to my header. there is a 50-100 pixel white gap between.

    Have went through entire css and removed all padding pixels to 0 and followed all the other threads on this topic. Including reducing the size of header and playing around with the pixel parameters on css- which only led to entire page changing length.

    I change the original twenty ten css in each case, as on my child the editor only shows the link to twenty ten css.

    I am probably being dumb and not changing childs css directly may be the cause??

    I would really appreciate any help with this problem

    Cheers

    Open style.css (line 351)

    Paste this instead of it.

    #site-title {
        float: left;
        font-size: 30px;
        line-height: 36px;
        margin: 0;
        width: 700px;
    }

    Remove the 18px margin by pasting in the above.

    Cheers, I have done that, but didn’t change.

    I think actually when I removed the original title by using <!– –> keys (as I use the header as title). By hiding them, it has caused the gap to appear. So will try going through my code again. But thanks for your help

    As I edited my header.php in child. Hiding the code for the title

    Try adding this to your child theme style.css file:

    #site-title {
        margin: 0;
    }

    Don’t make changes to your parent style.css file (or any other) — as they will be deleted when WP is updated.

    can we add adsense code in the gap btw header??

    Thanks for that advice, I have replaced

    <a href="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a>-->
    
    					</span>
    				<!--</<?php echo $heading_tag; ?>>
    				<div id="site-description"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></div>-->

    with

    <!--<a>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a>-->
    
    					</span>
    				<!--</<?php echo $heading_tag; ?>>
    				<div id="site-description"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></div>

    And now back to normal, except I still have the Title problem, will follow another solution to getting rid of it, and hopefully it wont move the menu bar as well

    sorry only just saw you comment WPyogi. Did that change suggested but not effective, because I changed the header php file. Hiding the code for the title. That has caused this, I realise now. Thank you for your help. I will try another solution to getting rid of title text ??

    Okay, what are you trying to remove? Using display: none; in your CSS may be the easiest approach.

    Right, I was trying to remove my title on all pages, as my header has my logo and title. Used the remove keys as it was posted on another forum, but caused the gap as well in my case. Will try the display none suggestion

    Sorry to be a pain, but what would I need to write on the style sheet to specify removing the title from all pages. Have just looked at a few other forums, but haven’t been sucessful yet

    Still looming horribly over header ??

    #header a{
    color: #b6e1fe;
    display: none;
    }

    Used this, but it got rid of my menu bar as well as the title above header

    Try this:

    h1#site-title {
       display: none;
    }
