    I want to remove the large black box that is above the name/home link. I have tried to locate it but have only been able to find the actual link in the code. Where would the code for the box be located?

  • Do you have any design that its supposed to look like. Removing the border-top from css removes the black box but the menu will go below the site title.

    it is a border in /wp-content/themes/swiss/style/css/typography.css

    h1 a {
    	margin-top:-182px;
    	font-size: 30px;
    	letter-spacing: -2px;
    	padding:9px 0 0;
    	height:173px;
    	width:317px;
    	border-top:173px solid black;
    	float:left;
    }

    you should be able to overwrite it in style.css of your theme, by adding this at the end:

    h1 a {
    	border-top: none;
    }

    If I do this, the categories go below the title.

    then leave the border and change the border color to white;

    1 a {
    	margin-top:-182px;
    	font-size: 30px;
    	letter-spacing: -2px;
    	padding:9px 0 0;
    	height:173px;
    	width:317px;
    	border-top:173px solid white;
    	float:left;
    }

    for those general formatting problems, try working with a browser inspection tool to identify where the elements are formatted in the stylesheet (I for instance use Firefox’ web developer add-on).

    I have done this. The categories are still below. I will try the tool.
