Menu Layout choice results bizarre

    I looked for this problem and didn’t find.

    I’ve created two simple sites in past using standard WP themes, only one active (maureensfarrell.com) for My wife’s art. It gets job done.

    I’d like new site to look functionally like this site, westend.org, minus pictures for now.

    Question applies to test site at maureensfarrell.com/test/
    Made with Bento downloaded a few days ago.

    I have no logo (future) but want to get site up w/o it. Right now, I’d settle for site title to left and menus in non-hamburger mode off to the right and some text below.

    Choosing Menu layout = Left Side< makes big Welcome appear with grey background and menu’s running down left side in non-hamburger mode and title overwriting itself and unreadable.

    Choosing Top, Right-aligned, OR Top-centered gives identical result of hamburger menu to far left and site title next to that and huge blank white space below.

    Choosing Top, hamburger plus overlay gives: Title to left, hamburger to far right and big white band.

    Whatever the blank white band (or grey area with Welcome – Left Side) that shows I don’t want it, or at least want to control size and content – what is it?

    Theme looks promising – I’ve been trying out several, even bought one but extremely complex. Yours seems a nice blend and gives ability for future niceties.

    Dear @thebooker,

    thank you for choosing Bento!

    The header mode you’re after is the default option of the “Menu layout” drop-down (“Top, right-aligned”), yet please note that the full menu automatically transforms into a hamburger on screens smaller than 1280px wide – in case your device’s screen size (or browser window width) is smaller than that, this is what you’ll observe. This breakpoint has been carefully chosen based on device usage statistics and is currently not adjustable via the back-end settings, yet technically you can change it by editing the line in the /wp-content/themes/bento/style.css file which looks like this:
    @media screen and (min-width: 80em) {
    by changing the “80” to a smaller value, preferably via a child theme.

    Sincerely,
    Andrii / Satori Studio

    I was using default mode and I’m working on a Macbook pro so seems like it should not be going into hamburger mode.

    Sorry, just saw email. I’m being inundated these days.
