• I’m using the twenty sixteen theme at the moment, but I did get OceanWP and will work with that later if I can figure it out. The problem I’m having with the twenty sixteen theme is I just created a navigation menu and now the menu and my site identity is above my header image. How do I position the image at the top?

    Thanks!

  • you’d need to change the order in the template so navigation is below the header image

    What judgerookie suggests is correct; it’s best done in a child theme.

    I’m not going to a child theme right now. Where is the template?

    probably header.php

    ok that’s where I put my adsense code. How do I locate it and will it be obvious what I need to change. Also, why wouldn’t the default be Head Image-Nav Bar-Site Identity?

    will it be obvious what I need to change

    What’s obvious to one may not be to another. Study the file, back it up first, and move step by step.

    This is how you do it – go thru each line of a php file? There’s no other way?

    All I did was add categories to the the menu that had About and Contact and the whole thing switched. I just removed the categories and it won’t go back. Are you saying I’m stuck with this unless I go thru php code? I found header image and I think menu – do I have to just cut and paste the order I want? I don’t see anything for site identity.

    in your php file just switch the two items like you’ve suggested

    keep a copy of the original before attempting so you can revert if it doesn’t work as expected

    we’ll get there

    if you still need help

    perhaps put the code (the part you hope to change) in your reply and we can look at it

    I did throw the entire header.php text\code into a word doc. I’ll see if I can locate the menu section, I assume it’s above the header image section. Can you recommend a free script \ code editor for download? Something with the line #’s so it’s easier to see where everything is.

    Also, any idea why I’m now getting emails for all other posts in this forum? Any way to shut that off?

    I would avoid using Word to copy code into as it can then bring its own code back in when copying and pasting back. Syntax is very important.

    I’d stick with a text editor, even .txt file is fine.

    I usually use Dreamweaver but also Brackets which is open source available at http://brackets.io/

    I just threw it in there before I added the adsense tracking code. I just downloaded notepad++ so I’ll use that from now on. And I have dreamweaver as well.
