Header Help Twenty Twenty Four

  • Hi there,

    I am a novice and new to using wordpress. I am building a small ecom store. I am using twenty twenty four for the theme and woo commerce.

    The header I have created looks okay, albeit a little long on the page, but I have found it very difficult to rectify and can live with it. However, when I put it in mobile view, the logo does not look central and the cart and customer account buttons look too big and the whole thing does not look good.

    Please can anyone help me design a simple header or explain how I can get it to look good in mobile view.

    I had a chap designing my website, I use hostinger for hosting, they designed it in WordPress, but used goodlayers and the site looked average at best and I really struggle to edit the site. I need to be able to maintain it myself, so I have switched to the new twenty twenty four theme, which is fairly straightforward to use in comparison. I have a small budget, so this makes sense to me.

    I have not yet linked my web address to this site, as it is still linked to the one these guys built, which is not going to be fit for purpose for a novice like me, I do have some systems knowledge and have been learning via online content.

    Any guidance would be very much appreciated ??

    Hey @shrewy – whilst the purpose of the forums isn’t really to help design and set up things – if you need hands on help that’s something you’d need to find another freelancer or contractor for.

    That being said – I’m happy to take a quick look and make some suggestions.

    • The height of the header that you mentioned – appears to be caused by Padding on the very left-hand column. If you select that column in the editor you should be able to adjust the top and bottom padding – which will reduce the height of that whole row.
    • re: centering of the logo. I can see the logo is centered – but it is centered within the width of the whole viewport/window, rather than centered between the other elements. So I do see what you mean. Unfortunately that is really working as designed (to have the logo centered in the window) and there’s not a great deal to do about that.
    • re: size of the icons: you can try adding some CSS code to help with that sizing
    @media (max-width:640px){
.wc-block-mini-cart__button svg{
    width: 24px !important;
    height: 24px !important;
}
    .wp-block-woocommerce-customer-account a .wc-block-customer-account__account-icon {
        width: 18px;
    }
.wc-block-mini-cart__badge {
    height: 1.3em;
    padding: .5em 0;
    font-size: 14px
}
}

    You can follow these instructions for adding that CSS:
