 * Hello,
 * For each one of my Pages, the header is offset to the left of the block of text.
   They definitely have different margins, but I wanted to get them to be the same.
   I have tried to experiment with the bumpers, but I have not had any luck.
 * Let me know if you can help.
 * Thanks!
 * Steve

 * As a clarification, it works fine on the mobile site, but the desktop and tablet
   views are offset.

 * Hi Steve,
 * I’m sorry for losing track…
 * I think your simplest solution is to change the padding for the CSS class entry-
   header:
 * It currently is set to –
    `padding: 0 20px;`
 * I would change it to –
    `padding: 0 50px;`

 * Tim,
 * Thanks so much for looking at it.
 * That fixes it for the website view, but it’ll offset the title 30px for the phone
   view, as well, which presents that as my new issue.
 * Is there a way to do it that would incorporate all of the views?

 * Steve,
 * Well, so much for a hasty solution. The best approach is to add a media query
   to the new CSS. Leave your original CSS as is for the entry-header class. That
   will support mobile devices first. We will create a new CSS block for desktops
   only. The code will look like this:
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
          .entry-header {
             padding: 0 50px;
          }
       }
       ```

 * Tim,
 * Thank you so much! I got it to work. It took me a bit, but you were exactly right.
 * I really appreciate the help.
 * Thanks, again.
 * Steve
