    Hi,

    We’ve been making progress on website update (snowcamping.org) – but I’ve come across some spacing weirdness in the header that I can’t seem to figure out. Hoping you might have some input!

    We are using a custom header layout. Ideally, we would like to have the menu bar be a single line for as long as possible – something that looks like this:
    (image 1 in the folder https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4afq3puz6eadzrw/AADmXO2OwCiYQ3n5HWppHm-8a?dl=0 )
    In this view, there is still additional white space on the left (e.g., left of snowcamping.org, about use, Mission, etc), and similarly on the right.

    When the browser is sized down a bit more, and the menu bar gets split into two rows, that white space margin actually *increases* (which is the opposite of what we would want, we’d like LESS white space on a smaller display, to make use of what screen space we have).
    (image 2 in the folder https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4afq3puz6eadzrw/AADmXO2OwCiYQ3n5HWppHm-8a?dl=0 )

    Is there any way to fix snowcamping.org (and the left margin in general) some fixed distance from the left border of the window, instead of have it kind of randomly move based on where the left border of snowcamping.org is? I assume this has something to do with the columns/column widths, but I can’t figure out where to adjust for that.

    We have a slightly similar issue for the mobile header, with the hamburger. There, it seems like there are again two columns, and there is padding to the left of snowcamping.org but the right jams right up against the menu items in the hamburger when it is expanded:
    (image 3 in the folder https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4afq3puz6eadzrw/AADmXO2OwCiYQ3n5HWppHm-8a?dl=0 )

    Is there some way to have the menu items be either right or center justified instead of left justified? Or in the worst case, either shift snowcamping.org left a bit or the menu items right a bit, so that they don’t run together?

    Thanks for any tips!

    Hi Mark,

    Thanks for reaching out with your Crio Pro WordPress theme questions. I’m sorry to hear you’re having some trouble with your custom header.

    It looks the structure and everything is intact but you just need to make a few tweaks to get it functioning the way you want. Do you mind sending us the code from your custom header so we can inspect and modify it for you? We can send you back clean code and explain how we made the adjustments.

    In order to do this you need to open your custom header in the page editor and switch to the “Text” editor, copy all the code you see there and paste it back here in the forum.

    We look forward to hearing from you!

    Hi Brandon,

    I’m trying to figure out how to access the code for the header (it would be useful for me to look at as well), and I’m not seeing an easy way. While the page editor (“post and page builder”) lets me see the text of web pages, it does not include header info.

    I’ve looked in Customize->Design->Header, and don’t see any option for that there either.

    From the wordpress menu, Appearance->Header gets me to the same place.

    Looking at header templates just gives me a WYSIWYG interface, as do select layout and custom header layout. Where do you actually get to look at the code?

    Thanks for any tips!

    My apologies Mark,

    So you’re actually using one of the pre-set header templates in the Customize > Design > Header control section. There’s no way to actually view the code directly using this method but some custom CSS and browser editor tools can get you close to where you want to be.

    I initially thought you were using a custom Crio header that you designed using Crio’s Custom Header buiilder. The custom header builder functions in the same way as the BoldGrid Post and Page Builder plugin giving you a drag and drop editor where you can also edit HTML.

    You may actually be able to recreate your design using the custom header builder in a way that better suites your vision. We have a guide and video on how to incorporate custom page headers in Crio.

    Take a look and let us know what you think, we look forward to hearing from you!
