Help! Content alignment issue blog all wrong

  • I am very new to wordpress, and have been trying to fix one issue after another, and i know its my lack of real understanding for how things work with the wordpress/php modular design. I would appreciate any help. The problem is that my blog posts when run locally with wamp are aligning too high and to the left. I have tried to change margins and padding and nothing seems to move them. I am sure i am not adjusting the correct css property, but I just honestly can not seem to figure it out. I was reverse engineering from a tutorial and altered some things as I went along. I want my page background to be two-fold a solid background color and a large top-centered image above the header which is why the page wrap and header are so low on the page. The navigation is too low now, but I think I know how to adjust that. It seems almost like there is a large margin underneath the header and I am not sure where it is. I know its something I’m overlooking or possibly the z-index?? I would appreciate any help at all, but please be gentle lol. Here is a pastebin link for all of my code. Thanks for helping a gal out ?? I am desperate ??

  • I just took a quick glance and found a 250px top margin in the css declaration #page-wrap
    I would think this is the cause of the space at the top.

    Sorry, guess I read your post again. Seems you want that space there. Guess I don’t understand your problem.
    I will look again.

    Both your #home-link and #main-content have large top margins. Could this be the problem?
    BTW, I put the code in Dreamweaver, I am not just guessing at this.

    yeah the margin is supposed to be there the issue im having is when i make a page the posts that are “test” posts when run locally on wamp are way over to the left and top is this just because they are posts? and can you control where the posts will be displayed? if so what is the css tag that does this ?
