    Am I in trouble for bumping (I just learned what that is) in an earlier post? Moderators are always so good at getting back to the members and I am afraid I have ruined my reputation because no one is responding. ??

    No, we don’t “punish” people :). Probably just that no one was around when you posted the above.

    But I’m not sure what you are trying to do. Also, you have this code above the DOCTYPE in your header.php file – and that’s NEVER correct – so take that out.

    <div style="background: #e7e7e7; width: 100%; height: 50px; position: fixed; margin-top: 0; z-index: 1000; " >
<div id="top"><form role="search" method="get" class="search-form" action="https://helpfixthehurt.org/wordpress/">
				<label>
					<span class="screen-reader-text">Search for:</span>
					<input type="search" class="search-field" placeholder="Search &hellip;" value="" name="s" title="Search for:" />
				</label>
				<input type="submit" class="search-submit" value="Search" />
			</form></div>
</div>

    Any code to appear on any webpage MUST go inside the <body> tags. The body tags are not the same as the “body” of a site.

    Okay, thanks. I’ve been reading more about the moderators for WordPress and etiquette and have to say that I am humbled at the fact you guys/gals volunteer your time to assist the millions of (sometimes inane) questions.

    Thank you for what you do. ??

    Also, this does explain why I broke my theme last night. I was trying to move the search button to the top, but if I can get the menu to work where it is with the search, I’ll leave it there. Maybe this will fix the problem. Checking…

    I removed the code, but my theme is still broken, so I will need to start over on that. I noticed it broke after I installed a plugin last night. It never came back after deinstalling the plugin, so I thought your discovery may fix it. No biggie, I can easily redo the child theme.

    I reactivated the default twenty thirteen theme to help illustrate my original question. You can see the nav bar is fixed under the header image. I would like to float:right the nav bar next to the site title on the left. When coding the #navbar id container to where I want it positioned, the menu actually became dead. I could see the text, but links were not active. I used Firebug to seek out all the id and containers and tried several different ones, but still couldn’t get it to work.

    My question is whether it’s possible to float the twenthythirteen nav bar and which id container to target or if I should use twentytwelve theme instead.

    My question is whether it’s possible to float the twenthythirteen nav bar and which id container to target or if I should use twentytwelve theme instead.

    Pretty much anything IS possible – it’s a question of CSS and possibly changing the structure in the header.php file – I’d have to look at it more closely. If you’re going to stick with twentythirteen and want more help with it, get the child theme fixed, and post back with a bit more details of what you are trying to do, and someone can likely assist you further.
