FOUND THE SOLUTION:

I needed to keep ” wp_footer(); ” in my footer.php. I must have deleted it by mistake or confusion (most likely)

OK, I have figured out what is happenning, so I will post it here in case someone else has the same issue.

The gap that appears over my new theme’s design, I discovered, only appears when I am logged-in. So this is the space that WordPress uses to display it’s buttons for managing the site. It just so happens that I must have disabled this unknowingly.

I don’t know how to re-enable this, but it is not that important since I don’t need those buttons, I just edit from the dashboard and this only happens if you are logged in.

Hi,
I didn’t save it because it wasn’t working. I thought that by simply inserting `.current_page_item {
background: …
}`

it would override the parent stylesheet, but it doesn’t work. And I’m wondering if it has to do something with specificity.

Sorry, I also meant to explain that it is a gap above the navigation, roughly half the height of the navigation. It’s just a gray background.

wpismypuppet,

After you asked, I verified the obvious. It happens on Chrome and not in safari (both up to date, on a Mac OS), which leads me to believe that perhaps something in my reset.css is not targeting Chrome.
