 * I’m using the following template from Template Monster: [http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/45545.html](http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/45545.html)
 * Here is my site: [http://www.andyshay.net](http://www.andyshay.net)
 * I was able to make my menu have a second line for a couple main nav buttons with
   long names. But now when you hover over one of the single line buttons, the height
   of the menu leaves a gap. It’s shorter than the 2 line menu buttons. Roll over
   the word “Galleries” on my site and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Any idea
   where I’d attack this?

 * Hi there igendreau!
    You can try defining a height on all of the menu items, 
   so that all of them have the same height regardless of how long the name are.
 * Try adding this css:
 *     ```
       #topnav li a {
           height: 38px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Remember to use a custom css plugin or a child theme when apply css. I hope that
   solved it for you 🙂
