    I’m using the WordPress Twenty Fourteen theme. Since the 4.0.1 version, my banners now display a thin white line on the left side of the banner. My logo is black and is on the left portion of my banner. Before 4.0.1 the banner matched the black borders of the Twenty Fourteen theme. I’m using a banner size of 1260 x 240.

    Did the WordPress update increase the banner size? In Appearance/Header the preview shows no white line and the crop feature on the upload shows the complete header. What is causing this white line? Do I have to increase my banners by one or two pxs?

  • Hey, sdiverdan!

    What’s your website link?

    It would help us help you if you included a link to your website.

    There are no changes in the twentyfoutreen theme between versions 4.0.1 and 4.0.0
    There are some changes with 3.9.2

    Do you use a browser inspector like firebug ?

    I tried to increase the banner to 1265 x 240 but it wants to crop it to 1260 x 240. I unfortunately do not have my test system on the old version of WordPress, it is also on 4.0.1. I don’t know how to fall back to the old version to verify this change.

    I also compared the css for Twenty Fourteen 1.2 and 1.1 and although there are changes, nothing that adds or removes that white line. For some reason I cannot get rid of that white line! This problem appears on Chrome, Firefox and IE. Worked great on all three before 4.0.1 and 2014 1.1. In the WordPress admin panel the Header preview shows correctly…all black no white line.

    You’ll notice that on my main page is a Sponsor slideshow, before WordPress 4.0.1, I had three NextGen Gallery slideshows each showing 12 of our sponsor’s business cards (36 in total). With 4.0.1, NextGen Gallery with the Shortcode Ultimate row and columns also failed. I had to remove the row/column shortcodes and just use one slideshow. Problem there is I cannot center it. It is obviously a problem with Slideshow in the content area of the column using Shortcode Ultimate. Once I put the slideshow in a column the following end column and end row shortcodes show on the screen as they are ignored. I haven’t raised that issue yet as I’m sure it is do to the 4.0.1 shortcode problems but haven’t worked it out yet.

    Sorry forgot to answer your question… nope never heard of firebug… I’ll search for it now.

    There is a blurred grey edge on the image.
    Who knows why this did not show before.

    that’s the point, the image does not have this edge. Verified it in Gimp, paint and PS Elements. I suspect it is something to do with adding the header image. The background is black but the white edge appears. Is it possible that the header image background area is white/grey and for some reason it no longer matches the 2014 header size?

    the (one px wide) grey line seems to be part of the cropped image – verified with Fireworks

    the original image might not have that line – can you upload the original image to some image sharing site so somebody can double-check it?

    ok, here’s the banner on Flickr https://www.flickr.com/photos/97914524@N03/
    I’m pretty sure there is no line on the banner.

    the grey line is visible in https://www.flickr.com/photos/97914524@N03/15905989025/ which comes up when you click on the flickr image.

    thanks alchymyth! I also just found it in my banner. I created a solid color banner of various sizes and it worked so I knew it was my banners! I guess I should have made the background black in paint and Gimp to see it. I also did not click on the picture in Flickr so I only saw it with the white background.

    thanks… now back to re-creating my banners.
