 * For some reason, my header has a large section of whitespace above and below 
   it that I can’t seem to get rid of. I can’t find any setting that’s forcing it
   to add those gutters/margins. Am I overlooking something?
 * Site is: [https://awardslandscape.com/](https://awardslandscape.com/)

 * This is a problem with css from the class .wp-elements
 * Is this a plugin, if yes can you deactivate it?
 * If not then we can also fix this problem with css:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       .wp-site-blocks {
         padding: 0 !important;
       }
       .wp-container-8 {
         top: 0 !important;
       }
       header.wp-block-template-part > div:nth-child(1){
         margin-top: 0 !important;
       }
       ```

 * I don’t have any plugins that should be affecting the site CSS. I’m using the
   base 2023 WordPress block theme. I assume it has to be something in the settings
   within the template, but I can’t figure out which settings those might be. I 
   don’t see any spacer blocks in there either.

 * Are you saying I need to add that code or remove that code? I didn’t add anything
   like that and I have set the margins in the block edit for that group to 0, so
   I’m not quite sure what you want me to do.
