Okaayyy….a link would help a bit so we could see your CSS. 🙂
I can say that the whitespace problem, I finally gave up trying to fix and put the header in my index page rather than as a background in the CSS.
Damn, sorry about that. I just realized I didn’t leave a link and got back on XD.

#content {
width: 500px;
margin: 0;
text-align: left; <– change that for your comments alignment
float: left;
background-color: #fff;
padding: 10px 25px;
As for the date…I think I fixed that by removing the 25px padding…but frankly it’s been so long ago I can’t remember. 🙁
That fixed everything, thanks 🙂
A few notes, however, for anyone else using Gutenburg that has this problem.
The text-align: right;
property is what makes the date align to the right on top of posts. Apparently the creator didn’t notice how this screwed up the “comments:” and “Leave a comment” headers, as well as the comments themselves.
I used this fix:
– Change the text-align
property in #content to right
– Create a new definition as such:
#date {
text-align: right;
}
– Modify your index.php
file so that this:
<?php the_date(”,'<h2>’,'</h2>’); ?>
Becomes this:
<?php the_date(”,'<h2 id=”date”>’,'</h2>’); ?>
That should make everything work how it was supposed to 😀
Welcome, glad I could help – though rather than the date solution (which I no longer use the dates, I have them per post), I just changed the h2 to align to the right, does the same thing. 😉
I did that as well until I realized that the “comments” and “leave a comment” headers were also <h2>s, and I don’t want them aligned to the right, as it looks fairly ugly to my taste :(. That is another solution, however.
I’m still having problems with the image in the header bar. Can anybody shine some light on the subject?
In #header, set the margin to zero
#header {
margin: 0;
}
I went with margin-top, because applying all margins to zero makes the content and menu crowd the header a bit. Thank you for the heads up, I wouldn’t have been able to come up with that stuff without you guys :D.
Now to find a more appropriate picture for the header…
