    Hi folks, is it possible to remove the header area or minimize it's size in the Metro theme? I'm not using a header image and now I just have a lot of white space above my posts.

    I basically want a landing page but with minimal navigation. I do have premise but I can't figure out a way to add navigation to a landing page.

    You just need to find #header in your CSS stylesheet (somewhere around line #518) and change this:

    #header {
    min-height: 87px;
    overflow: hidden;
    }

    to this:

    #header {
    height: 0px;
    overflow: hidden;
    }

    Hope this helps!

    Warmly,
    Jeni

    Hi!

    There is most likely a minimum height set on the header div. Look for this in your stylesheet (this is from the demo on line 518 of style.css):

    `#header {
    min-height: 87px;
    overflow: hidden;
    }`

    Adjust or remove this min-height so that the header area is no longer forced to be 87px.

    Hope this helps!
