Header cuts off

  • Wordpress newbie over here. The header was fine at first. I was playing around with the background color of the page and when I clicked “publish” 1/4 of an inch gets cut off the top of the header. I tried changing the background color back and it didn’t help. Not sure what to do to fix it. Any advice would help greatly.

    This is what the cut-off header looks like:

    Find this CSS:

    .header_top {
    background: #4c4c4c;
    overflow: hidden;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 1px 5px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.11);
    -moz-box-shadow: 0px 1px 5px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.11);
    box-shadow: 0px 1px 5px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.11);
    padding-top: 0;
}

    Add some padding. For examle, padding-top: 30px;

    Don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten whenever the theme is updated.

    A custom CSS editor (usually titled Additional CSS) is included in the Customizer as of WordPress 4.7 specifically for this purpose.

    As an alternative, especially if you intend to modify more than just CSS, create a child theme.

    Hi Team

    I am new to WordPress. I have one question as I wanted to change “Blogs” instead of “Blog” on my header when we go to Blogs tab.

    I copied and pasted the code:

    .header_top {
    background: #4c4c4c;
    overflow: hidden;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 1px 5px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.11);
    -moz-box-shadow: 0px 1px 5px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.11);
    box-shadow: 0px 1px 5px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.11);
    padding-top: 0;
    }

    into Additional CSS and also tried padding-top: 30px; and it did not work. I think the problem with my site is that somehow these 1/4 inch top margins appeared on both top and bottom of my screen and whenever I scroll, the 1/4 inch margins follow. I don’t know how to make it disappear.

    I found out the 1/4 inch thing that’s cutting off my header is called a “sticky header” or “floating header”. I need to remove it as it is blocking the original header. Any advice would help. Thank you!

    Your currently used thebreuergroup theme could not be found in the www.ads-software.com/themes/ directory.

    If this was a custom theme, you may have to go back to your developer team and ask them to make the necessary change(s) to the theme.

    For pro or commercial product support please contact the author directly on their site.

    The theme I am using is Twenty Sixteen/thebreuergroup Version: 1.3
    which was the WordPress default theme of 2016. The author of the theme is www.ads-software.com. If I cannot get help through WordPress forums, can you please direct me to where I would get support from?

    I recommend asking at https://www.ads-software.com/support/theme/twentysixteen so the theme’s developers and support community can help you with this.

    FYI the current version of that theme is 1.8
