Home/Login header. Moving it down from the top?

[dolph lundgren]

Hi everyone.

I apologize for the fundamental question, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere on the forums or elsewhere.

The header in question, navMainWrapper — I want to simply not have it at the very top of the page, but a few pixels down. Easy enough, right. I figured just throwing a "top: 60px;" line in the stylesheet.css would do it, but nope. So I tried a "margin-top" line, and it did move it down, but now I have 60 px of white space.

Additionally, I find the bottom navMainWrapper to be redundant and want to remove it. How would I go about doing that? They're the same div, so that has be a bit confused as to how to edit one and not the other.

Thanks. I look forward to contributing to the forum where I can. :)

A link to your site would let us give specific advice for your situation.
If you want the background color of #navMainWrapper to continue to the top, use padding-top:

The footer nav is #navSuppWrapper.

You can disable the whole footer by setting $flag_disable_footer = true; in /includes/templates/your_template/common/tpl_main_page.php, following the directions in the comments at the top of the file.

If you want to be more selective, you can edit /your_template/common/tpl_footer.php.

I'd link if it were on a live server. Sorry.

Yeah, I tried padding-top. I just get the color of whatever navMainWrapper is for 60px. I don't want that. I want nothing. No color. Space. For 60 px. :)

My mistake about the footer. I misread the CSS. Thanks for that!

[gjh42]

Well, you're going to have some color no matter what...

Do you mean you want the top of the page to shift down so the outer background shows above it?
In that case, you would put the margin-top in #mainWrapper.

[dolph lundgren]

Oh. MainWrapper.
Thank you.

Moral of the story: I'm a jackass.

[dolph lundgren]

Hmm. That doesn't work either.

If you can post a screnshot of what you have it might help.

You know what. I think I got it. I swear to Christ I am an idiot.

[dolph lundgren]

lol, I sure didn't. This is almost becoming comical.

If someone wants to jump in and offer something, feel free.
