• I am using Credence theme, and want to remove the whole header, from every page, since I created a separate section for logo and a custom menu. Thank you.

  • There is no Credence support here, but you might be able to do that by using a Child Theme to supersede the Parent’s header.php.

    Whenever I try editing the theme itself I look through the css and find the code for the heading or whatever I may be looking for and edit it and add it to a css stylesheet. Are you familiar with editing css?

    No. Then every theme update will write over your changes. Use a child theme.

    Support for your theme is here or wherever you purchased it.
    http://www.mojo-themes.com/item/credence-a-wonderful-multi-purpose-wordpress-theme/

    If you use a commercial theme or plugin and need support, please go to their official support channel. In order to be good stewards of the WordPress community, and encourage innovation and progress, we feel it’s important to direct people to those official locations. Doing this will provide the developer with the income they need to make WordPress awesome.

    Forum volunteers are also not given access to commercial products, so they would not know why your commercial theme or plugin is not working properly. This is one other reason why volunteers forward you to the commercial product’s vendors. The vendors are responsible for supporting their commercial product.

    Thank you all. I was able to remove the header by adding some custom CSS that someone told me about to remove the header. Unfortunately, I was not able to get any support from the Credence theme developer because I purchased their theme as part of a bundle through Mojo Marketplace. I do want to do the Child Theme, but all the steps necessary seem to be out of my league at this point, so I guess I will have to update the Custom CSS again anytime I update the theme.

    Here you go:
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/child-theme-configurator/

    All of my own struggles with the details of making Child Themes came to an end right after recently discovering that plugin. First make a backup copy of whatever theme file you have edited, then restore that file in your Credence theme. After doing that, start the configurator and select Credence as the Parent, then click ‘Generate/Rebuild Child Theme Files’ and you will have one. After that, move ‘@charset “UTF-8”;’ to the very top of your Child Theme’s style.css and then copy your previous modifications to below everything else there and you should be good-to-go!

    Edit: At that point, if you wish, you can deactivate the configurator and just let it sit there waiting for updates until next time.

    I will give that a try, thank you @leejosepho
