    I’ve recently updated to WP 3.4.1, which seems to have a new background section (appearance/background) – before the upgrade my background image would start below the header, leaving white space on top. Now it is on top.

    How do I set the background image so it begins below my header?

  • This requires editing header.php (of the default template, at least – this can vary on other themes) and rearranging the php so that the div for the header image is displayed where desired – note: this is best done in a child theme (so one does not lose their customization). It may be possible to do with CSS, but will break this display setup on older browsers typically, if CSS is used to rearrange.

    That all said, please provide a site link and we can look at the CSS to see if it’s easy do do that way…

    Here is how I want my site to look (how it looked before I mistakenly updated everything): http://www.flickr.com/photos/83043350@N06/7735007862/in/photostream

    I’ve encountered more problems – just a heads up:

    #1 – Here is how my site looked before I broke it by updating everything: My Site Pre-Update

    #2 – Here is how I see my site when I am logged into WP-Admin as I painstakingly tried to rebuild it. My Broken Site When Logged In

    #3 – Here is how the site looks to me once I am logged out: Really Broken (WTF) Site

    As you can see, I now have a much bigger issue than just moving the background down below the header – any help would be greatly appreciated.

    UPDATE:

    So I’ve figured the majority out – and pretty much have my site rebuilt. It is back to looking like option #2 – My Broken Site When Logged In – both when I am logged in and when I am logged out.

    Now all I need to do is figure out how to get the background image to start below the header, so it once again looks like this: #1 – My Site Pre-Update

    Hopefully someone can help.
