Hi Flynn,

Thank you for the wonderful Atahualpa theme. (I just made a contribution. ) I am learning html, css and think I know just enough to be dangerous.

On my test blog, http://www.ellifolks.com/testblog/ , I would like to delete the menu bar, move everything up about a 1/2 inch, and have some more peach area (about 1/4 - 1/2") area below the header image. I thought I was deleting the text from the menu bar, and it seems to have deleted the text from the sample posts. I can't figure out where to add to get more peach under the header (or where to subtract margin from top of posts area.) Nothing I tried seemed to change anything. I also can't get rid of the left-hand dashed border for the search box. I was able to delete it from the other sides of the box.

Thanks for your help!

Ellen

I was able to get the text back.

I still can't figure out how to delete the menu bar, move everything up about a 1/2 inch, and have some more peach area (about 1/4 - 1/2") area below the header image, and remove the left dashed border of the search box.

Thank you.

Ellen

The page menu bar is still there just invisible as you seem to have matched the colors against the background. To completely remove it, remove %pages at A. Theme Options -> Header -> Configure Header Area

Add %bar1 or %bar2 at A. Theme Options -> Header -> Configure Header Area

Your should have this there:

%logo %image %bar2

Then style %bar2 to be an invisible place holder, at A. Theme Options -> Header -> Horizontal Bar 2: Styling

Change the default settings from

height: 5px;
background: #ffffff;
border-bottom: dashed 1px #cccccc;

to

height: 5px;

Modify 5px for more or less space

Remove these lines from Header -> Search Box:

border-top: 1px;
border-right: 1px;
border-bottom: 0;
border-left: 1px dashed #ccc;

Thank you, Flynn! That worked. :-)
