theme twenty eleven 1.2

  • Dear all,

    I am using the twenty eleven 1.2 theme and cannot edit the space between the header picture and where the text starts – ideally I would like it all to fit on one page with no scrolling..

    Thanks in advance..

  • Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues.

    Create a child theme for your customisations. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.

    Well, you can reduce that gap, but you can’t guarantee you’ll always get your content without scrollbars. That will depend on the length of the content and the size of the viewport. You may have a little bit of control over the former if it’s only you creating content, but you’ve absolutely no control at all over the latter.

    Having said that, you can reduce the gap you’re concerned with by creating a child theme and then in the child theme create a rule to reduce the padding for the site title. Here’s the current rule:

    #site-title {
  margin-right: 270px;
  padding: 3.65625em 0 0;
}

    You’ll probably also want to reduce the bottom margin of the site description. Here’s the existing rule:

    #site-description {
  color: #7A7A7A;
  font-size: 14px;
  margin: 0 270px 3.65625em 0;
}

    So let’s say you wanted 1em at the top and bottom. You could create two new style rules in your child theme style.css file as follows:

    #site-title {
    padding: 0;
}

#site-description {
    margin-bottom: 0;
}

    That should do it.

    Cheers

    PAE
