WP Help - Too Much White Space Under Logo!

by npaige
7 replies
Hi folks,

I just created and inserted my first logo into my first blog
I think I made it larger than the theme demo shows.
But I like the size!

Can you please take a look?
Under the logo and tag there is too much white space.
What can I do to get rid of it?

    try adding the lines

    /* get rid of white space below logo in header */

    #header div.clear {display: none;}
    #header div.header-ad {display: none;}

    to your CSS file, or to the custom CSS option in your theme.

    that should fix it.

    Alternatively if there is an option to "Display header advertisement" or similar, you should disable it.

    Everyone else also gets just one crack at it - help make theirs awesome too... or, politely step out of their way.

    If that's the case then your logo is probably too big for your theme.

    What is the suggested size for the logo?

    Or, just add some white-space to the bottom of your logo using an image editor... say 30 pixels, and that will create about the right amount of space between the logo and the content.

      I could not find the suggested size... in the logo area or the theme junkie site.I'm sure I made it bigger though... Is there not a way to add space in between the logo/tag and the categories below?

      Thank you.

    I take it back, you've obviously already done that and it hasn't worked.

    Yes, there is a way to add space between the logo and the menu, but you're going to have to get into the CSS i'm afraid, or make your logo smaller.

    As far as options to change things around, that all depends on the theme that you're using, and what options they allow.

    One thought: there are people on Fiverr who will fix this kind of thing for the cost of one or more gigs.

    Send a message to a few of them and see who comes back - not all reply.

    I've done this with quite a few niggling problems and had fixes back fast.

    Before vWorker sold out, they were worried about Fiverr taking some of their business so I guess I'm not the only one going down this route.
