How to remove the space above the header in twenty ten?

    Hi, I am using twenty ten theme and have created a child theme of it. And I have used various methods to remove the empty space above the header, but it did remove a little bit – not a lot, as I wanted to. And when I view single post the space is still there and bigger than the homepage. So, what did I do wrong here?

    I also want to reduce the spaces both on the left and right sides of the container. I think there’s a big gap between the content and the edge of the container, maybe 20px on each side.

    I thank you in advance!

    My website is: http://bupphawitt.com/

    Are you using Firebug or an equivalent tool?

    Hi, and thanks for your prompt response! Yes, I do. I found this code:

    #wrapper {
    background: #fff;
    margin-top: 20px;
    padding: 0 20px;
    }

    Is it the code for the top and container?

    But, how do I reduce the huge space both on the homepage and the single post, and plus the space between the content and the container?

    Here’s the link of the single post: http://bupphawitt.com/start-exercising/. Take a look a the huge space on top of the header.

    Try displaying none the site title.

    I did put this code in my child theme:

    #wrapper {
    background:#fff;
    padding: 0 5px;
    }

    #site-title {
    display: none;
    margin-left: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
    margin-top: 0;
    }

    But, it seems like it’s not working. Is it the right code?

    Your Child Theme style.css file has no such style.

    Click on the link in my last post and look for the code you that you said, “I did put this code in my child theme”.

    I have checked, and you were right the code is not there. But, when I went to my cpanel, and checked my child theme the code is there in the style.css. Maybe, it takes some time before it’s being updated.

    I don’t understand why nothing has changed, yet? What have I done wrong again?

    If you’ve triple-checked that you’re editing the correct file, you should contact your hosting providers regarding this.

    I don’t understand, does it have something to do with my hosting provider?
