    Hello,

    I am need to create a Cover block with a 30px height for my website. I am using the Blank-Canvas theme. Right now, the minimum height is set to 50px, regardless if I input a lower number. Attached is a screenshot, and am hoping their is a way to customize the block with CSS, or help navigating the source .PHP file to edit.

    Thank you for your help,
    Michael

    Hi Michael,

    First, with the cover block selected, navigate down to Advanced in the right-side menu.

    Under Additional CSS Classe(s), give the block a specific class name, like “cover-thirty.”

    Publish the page.

    Then, in the Customizer under Additinal CSS, add this code:

    .cover-thirty {
	max-height: 30px;
}

    That should do it, but it won’t affect the other cover blocks you use.

    DJ, your method works, thanks again. Now I know how to create custom CSS lines for specific items with Class names.

    Even though the cover block shrunk, it is still sticking at 50px. There is a line of code in the Blank-Canvas theme limiting it, which is the opposite reason I downloaded a blank theme in the first place. I’m going to try and track the source in the .php files.

    Oops, you’re right! Sorry about that.

    Blank-Canvas is a child theme of Seedlet, which gets installed automatically. Try looking in the files inside that theme.

    To start, you might search for “wp-block-cover” in Seedlet>assets>sass>blocks>cover.
