 * hello! Does anyone have the css to automatically shift down a website’s header
   menu so the admin bar doesn’t cover it for the newest version of wordpress? I’m
   using adobe muse and wordpress, but I can imput the css code in wordpress or 
   in muse. Either way will help me!

 * The admin bar is 46 pixels high when the browser window is up to 762 pixels wide,
   and 32 pixels high otherwise. WordPress adds “admin-bar” to the `<body>` tag 
   if the admin bar is present. The exact CSS would depend on how you’ve got the
   header set up, but that should be enough to let you figure it out.

      Reason: added information about the body tag

 * So I finally got a chance to look at your site and Adobe Muse really made a mess
   of things, IMHO. Every single element in your sticky header has to have the `
   top` value changed or it doesn’t move with the rest of the header, and I can’t
   figure out why the white bar behind the header doesn’t move.
 * My advice would be to see if you can clean it up a bit in Muse, or hiring someone
   from [http://jobs.wordpress.net](http://jobs.wordpress.net) or a local WordPress
   meetup or a trusted friend. If you do choose to hire someone, please do not accept
   any offers that are posted in these forums; that’s not permitted by the forum
   rules.
