 * Hello,
 * Love the Theme!!! I added a header image and choose none for the overlay getting.
   It works ok, but if the image has a white background, or a transparent background
   it seems to be overlaid in a gray.
 * Can you please tell me if this is a known issue with an overlay setting of ‘none’,
   or is there something I need to do to my image?
 * Thank you.

 * Hi LilMoke,
 * Thanks for the kind words. Currently, I have not added the customizer functionality
   to change the overlay. However, you can edit the theme style.css to accomplish
   this. It’s advisable to create a child theme if you don’t wish for this edit 
   to be overwritten with any future updates to the theme. Find the following and
   change the “0.2” to “0.0” to remove the overlay.
 *     ```
       .overlay {
           background:rgba(0,0,0,0.2) url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAIAAAACCAQAAADYv8WvAAAADklEQVQIHWNgYGBoACMABIoBAUIssgcAAAAASUVORK5CYII=) repeat;
           min-height:200px;
           padding:10px 0 0
       }
       ```
   
 * I hope this helps, and if you have time, please leave a rating 🙂

 * Sounds gods, I will try it in the AM. One last question, is there a way to decrease
   the spacing between the image/header on the home page and the text under it. 
   If that does not make sense, later I can post a screenshot.
 * Thank you again and I will definetly rate!!

 * LilMoke,
 * Sure! There are two sections that define a top margin and padding that affects
   the space between the header and the content area. Just edit style.css and find
   the following two sections…
 * Edit the margin-top in the code below and change it to 0 or something smaller
   than 40px:
 *     ```
       .site-content {
           margin-bottom:4em;
           margin-top:40px;
           //margin-left:1em;
       }
       ```
   
 * Then, find the following…
 *     ```
       .content-area {
           padding: 2.0em;
       }
       ```
   
 * and change it to…
 *     ```
       .content-area {
           padding: 0 2.0em 2.0em 2.0em;
       }
       ```
   
 * There should be no space if you set `margin-top:0;` in the first section and 
   change the second section to the new padding.

 * All the above worked great!! Thanks for the help!!! I am new to WordPress so 
   I was wondering if the page that appears in the content are under the header 
   can be NOT styled? I am trying to add a table and some text, but I want it to
   take a slightly different style. For example, the Theme tables have an alternating
   grey row, and bigger font size than I would like.
 * Thank you

 * The gray even cells of a table is defined in style.css. You can edit or delete
   the following lines to change it:
 *     ```
       table tr:nth-child(even) {
           background:#f5f5f5
       }
       ```
   
 * You can also edit the other table attributes in the same section of style.css:
 *     ```
       /* Tables */
       table {
           font-size:0.9em;
           margin:0 0 1.5em;
           padding:0;
           width:100%
       }
   
       thead {
           background:#f5f5f5
       }
   
       th {
           font-weight:700
       }
   
       td,th {
           padding: 0.5em;
       }
   
       table tr:last-child td {
           border-bottom:none
       }
   
       table tr:nth-child(even) {
           background:#f5f5f5
       }
       ```

 * I am also having an issue when I view it on a mobile device. The menu the shows
   in the upper right does not work. It also does not work on the desktop when the
   window is small, but the text menu works fine.

 * I’ve had multiple people experience this (mobile menu not working).
 * It appears to be a conflict with a plugin. I would suggest disabling all plugins
   and seeing if it works. Then, enable one plugin at a time until you find the 
   one that is causing conflicts.

 * Ok, I will check my plugins’s. Also, if I shrink my browser down or use mobile
   device, the footer also disappears. FYI. The menu shares the problem on the desktop
   as well, when the window is narrow.
