Reduce size of header in custom theme

Viewing 2 replies - 1 through 2 (of 2 total)

  • The header height is being affected by the padding in this css — line 133 of style.css:

    #header {
    padding: 40px 0;
    position: relative;
    z-index: 2;
}

    Reduce the 40 to fit your preference.

    The width of the menu is set in 960.css by this:

    .container_12 .grid_8 {
    margin-left: 40px;
    width: 660px;
}

    But as you will see if you change it, it jumps to the lower line — because of the logo on the left. You might be able to get it to be wider by messing around with the CSS in that area — but be sure to save a copy of your CSS before changing anything. The best way to work with CSS is using a tool such as Firebug — which lets you look at the CSS and try changes in the browser without making them in the page code yet.

    And BTW, bumping is against the forum rules — will generally get removed by a moderator…
