    Update to the above

    Masthead size changed by WordPress 4.3 Upgrade

    I am using the Tesseract Theme, Mac OS 10.9.5, my website is
    24hrdeodorant.com.
    I must point out that do not know code at all but have fumbled around with using the “”Inspect Element” to get a vague idea of what happened.

    The 4.3 update created various problems most of which has been resolved. The major item is that the Masthead size was changed from 1097 px x 60 px to 512 px x 120 px , causing the last item of the horizontal menu to drop down. This size change only occurred to the “Home”Menu.
    As I am an ignoramus with code i have thought of the following possible solutions to the problem:-

    Removing the menu from the Home/landing page as I have 3 “Call To Action” Buttons on that page which would take the visitor to About, Must Know and Products pages, these would in turn allow the site visitor to access the Gallery/Links and Contact Pages.

    Locate and copy the Masthead code from the unaffected other pages. the locate the Masthead code of the “Home” page and substitute the copied code.

    Locate the Masthead dimensions in the code and just change the dimensions.

    Delete the present horizontal Main menu and use a drop down Icon style.

    Of course any of these solutions depend on a knowledge of code and a familiarity with editors. My experience is only with the “Editor “under “Appearance”and that did not get me anywhere, only to change colours.

    I am unable to change the measurements in Item 3. for the same reasons.

    I would appreciate any comments,tool suggestions, to solve my problems

    I would appreciate any help I can get, but it needs to be in plain language please.

    Thanks.

    I feel I am shouting in the WordPress Forest and no one can hear me! Of course most Tesseract users are newbies who are attracted to Tesseract theme because of the so called NO need of code.

    I have also had the same problems. I used the code that Tyler inserted into his Tesseract Theme and then modified it to fit my needs. However i discovered one must pay minute attention to the details.
    I hope you fixed the problem.

    buzztone,
    Thank you for taking the time to review my problem.
    I should add that I have been able to change the label color , but that changes the input text color too.Which is why used the title “text colour change of labels only“As I want white text due to the background image and blue text for input. I have attempted to change the background to blue and keep the text, with no luck so far.
    My problem is to understand where one inserts the code when I find the correct one.
    I am able to modify it temporarily by making changes through “Inspect element” and seeing what i want, but I am unable find how I can save it nor can I find the same code in the Theme editor.
    My comment about “4 year old” was to avoid tech explanations. Just plain and simple language as you provided.
    I appreciate all the help I can get.
    Thanks

    Thanks Danster,”” but that did not work for me, as I need it at center as you stated.

    I will continue to go bald as I scratch my head.

    After much scratching of my head and many attempts I realize that the problem lies in the fact that the menu header is divided into 2 columns, hence the no right??? Am I using the wrong logic?
    How can can I modify the row to 1 column only then write the code to reflect it centered? https://www.24hrdeodorant.com

    Danster: I have fiddled discretely and proved , to my mind, that it not as simple as that.
