    Hello:

    I would like to add a search box and Facebook button visible on top of a full width header. How do I got about making these modifications? The issue is when I add a widget to the header area the header image is greatly resized and not full width anymore. Thanks for any help.

    You can create a before header widget area and add your content there.

    Thanks Victor. I assume that I would then use CSS to place the content directly on the header image?
