I would like to decrease the space the header takes up on my site by making it thinner. What file and text do I alter to do that?

Thanks!

header.thtml, in /path/to/geeklog/public_html/layout/professional

bye, Dirk

Hi, I was trying to do the opposite. Make the header area bigger. My logo is a little too tall to fit in there and it's going over...

I read some posts on here and tried to paste <div id="gl_header" style="height:150px"> in the header, but that just made a space above the header and dropped the logo area lower. So how can I make the area where the logo goes higher in height? I don't see anything in the header.thtml file regarding it.

Thanks a lot!

kilerb,

What theme are you using?



Sounds like you are using either Chameleon, or Nouveau, correct?

Thx!

Hi, actually I never added any sort of theme. Version 1.4.1 and it's professional theme.

Gotcha!

For stock professional, edit the height for .header-logobg-container-inner, .header-logobg-left, and .header-logobg-right in layout/professional/style.css. You also might want to adjust the logo height in layout/professional/header.thtml on line 29:



Hope this helps!

Thanks, I found the adjustment areas and changed them. I made the top area black, but for some reason there is still a line going through the entire top area where the bottom used to be. It's white and about 5-10 pixels in height, it goes right through the logo area. How do I get rid of that line? Thanks!

Can you provide a link to your site, so we can see the issue?

Thx!

yes it's www.socalstandup.com

Thanks!

In style.css, around line 435 just remove the background image from header-logobg-container-inner, like this:



Thx!

Got it! Thanks a lot.... 8)

I am having problem sizing my header or manipulating it. I did some change to test site colors and after that now my header is covering the horizontal links at the top. How do I fix this?
the site is www.TennProFc.com.

It appears that the header is not your problem. Have a look at this image at http://www.tennprofc.com/staticpages/images/TennProFclogo.jpg and see if you can resize it. Currently the image dimensions are 840px × 460px (scaled to 1000px × 380px). This is what is pushing your page out to the right further than it should be. To verify this, either remove that image from that story or edit the story and place the draft flag on it. Then look at your home page again.

You may want to change the properties for the picture by using html like this in your story.

Adjust the width and height accordingly.

I appreciate your response. I just saw your post,and I will try it as instructed.
secondly how do I use the logo as the background of the static page instead.

By the way how strange that my pictures even displayed in the first place with my syntax?
check how I called the Image in IMG SRC=

<table ="70%">
<tr>
<td><center><image src="http://www.tennprofc.com/staticpages/images/swerve.jpg" width="400" height="220"></center></td>
<td><center><image src="http://www.tennprofc.com/staticpages/images/inthenet.jpg" width="400" height="220"></center></td>
</tr>
</center>
</table></p>

Ironmax's line of code is the correct syntax.
<img src="http://www.tennprofc.com/staticpages/images/TennProFclogo.jpg" height="190" width="500"></center>

:banana:

You will need to do the same to any and all other images in stories. The second image needs help as it to pushes out the right blocks
