Raindrops Theme Header Issue

I’d be happy to look at your site — but you need to post a link to it.

Hi there,

This is it here https://pinksissygirls.com

Thanks in advance

Just chucking my 2 cents worth in, you don’t appear to have any pages or posts, and nothing for your WordPress site to display.

Create a few pages and posts. That way you will not get a error 404 for your site.

I could not really figure out where that space is coming from either — but that’s partly because there is a lot of really weird and messy code in that page. I personally would look for another theme that is simpler to customize and has more people using it.

That said, I did figure out a way to remove the white gap — using CSS, BUT it’s a very clunky approach to coding — and it may or may not create other problems on other pages. I really would not recommend this as I think it will cause you grief down the road, but if you want to try it, add the bottom line (the margin-top) of this declaration to the style sheet:

#header-image {
    background-color: #FDD1E8 !important;
    margin-top: -26px;
}

Yes, it’s a negative margin — which effectively moves it up on the page.

Hi WPyogi,

TBH you have me really panicking about this theme now as I’m quite a newbie when it comes to customisation so I really don’t want to incur any future problems with this theme that I can’t fix…so I may just use another theme….shame as this was perfect for what I was looking for (3 columns which ‘seemed’ easy to customise).

If you could recommend any ‘easy’ 3 column themes I would be grateful.

TIA

Hi WPyogi,

Just to let you know that I have decided to use the code you gave me and it worked!

Hopefully there will be no issues…and if there are I’ll hopefully deal with them when the time comes.

Thank you so much for your help and I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
