 * Hi,
    My website is [http://bellesandbubbles.com](http://bellesandbubbles.com)–
   I am trying to fix the top navigation height, I would like it to stop at the 
   bottom of the dotted lines/menu items but the bar goes below it.

 * Hi
 * First of all, your customization to the theme is beautiful. Great work.
 * To make the change, add the following css in your theme’s style.css file
 *     ```
       #top-navigation {
           height: 40px;
       }
       ```
   
 * I assume you are using [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   for all your customizations.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks so much, it worked! And thank you for your kind words!
    I have to admit
   that they are not modified on child theme. I made all the modifications a while
   back and then downloaded a plugin that does not update the theme. Is there a 
   way in which I can change to making modifications in child theme? I’ve been unsure
   of how I should handle that.

 * Also – is there a way to align the top navigation menu items to the right of 
   the screen instead of the left?

 * Hi C
 * You can definitely move your changes to a child theme and I would you to do it
   sooner than later.
 * You can follow [codex](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) or [this blog](http://www.sourcexpress.com/wordpress-child-themes-use/)
   to see how to create a child theme and make it work. It is fairly simple.
 * create a child theme and move all your changes to the child theme and always 
   keep your wp, themes and plugins up to date.

 * to align top navigation to the right add the following css
 *     ```
       #top-navigation .sf-menu {
           float: right;
       }
       ```
