 * Here is the wordpress site I’m trying to iron out [http://test.sourcewestpartners.com](http://test.sourcewestpartners.com)
 * I’m trying to space the menu items out over that entire menu bar, right now there
   is a space on the right where a search bar used to be. The search bar was removed
   purposefully.
 * I’m clearly not a coding wizard but feel like I should already have figured this
   out, what am I missing? I haven’t used these forums before and wasn’t sure to
   try here or the place I bought the theme.

 * Open up styles.css (line 137), replace with this:
 *     ```
       ul.nav li {
       /* margin-right: 5px; original margin*/
       margin-right: 36px;
       z-index: 10;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you change the menu items in the future (Add or remove), you’ll need to adjust
   this new margin value.
