    Hi.

    I would appreciate any help in trying to make my headers height smaller on BradGibala.com I recently installed the "Sticky Menu or Anything on Scroll" plugin and it works well.

    What I want to do is cut the new header area that scrolls down in half. I have tried adding in height: 72px; to the .title-area { and height: 70 px; to the .site-header { area in css and nothing is working. I tried those separately and together.

    My end goal is to have the header title and header widget area (I have a menu in there right now) look like this forums and or what the No Sidebar Pro theme looks like. I am using Wellness Pro right now.

    If any one can give me some tips on how to make the header height smaller I and how to center the header widget area I would appreciate it.

    Thanks

    Brad

    Changing the style sheet won't help in your case. Something is injecting inline CSS into the header element, perhaps one of your plugins. The height is fixed at 122px by this inline CSS. Inline CSS takes precedence in the browser over style sheet. Find out where the inline CSS is coming from and you'll find where to change it.

    Thanks for the reply Victor

    I turned off the Sticky Menu plugin and started looking for a "122px" in the code.

    Could it be Jetpack? I am seeing this in the Jetpack.css file

    .jp-carousel-light a.jp-carousel-image-download {
    background-position: 0 -122px

    I just installed the "Sticky Header" plugin which looks like its going to work for me.

    If you believe the Jetpack plugin is the issue still then I would appreciate any ideas in case I want to go the css route.

    Thanks

    It's not jetpack. The size is not coming from any style sheet. It's being injected as an inline style by a plugin or jQuery process. I can't determine which from an external view of the site.
