 * [@mrtom414](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrtom414/) thank you for your
   reply! I’ll see what I can do later this week 🙂
 * I can sort of re-create the look & animation using Elementor, but I’m trying 
   to learn new things 🙂
 * I’ll probably have to do it in Elementor so long as a place-holder.
 * Thank you again for your time & input!

 * Hi Threadi,
 * I added it to the Customise-Additional CSS. I’ve changed the ‘black’to clear &
   am now trying to wrap my head around the transitional-scroll, which I hope to
   use to make the header shrink slightly & then change to black. Sorry for any 
   confusion.
 * I’m modifying this – [https://codepen.io/viablethought/embed/MwLoYv?default-tab=css%2Cresult&theme-id=0](https://codepen.io/viablethought/embed/MwLoYv?default-tab=css%2Cresult&theme-id=0)–
   with a smaller pre-shrink height & different colours.
 * Thank you again for your willingness to help! I’m hoping to add value to this
   forum from a WP performance and security point of view.

 * Thank you Threadi! I’m a network engineer & new to the CSS side of things 😛
 * In the mean time, I came right with the following base from Codepen, that I adjusted
   a little, but their implementation worked. ([https://codepen.io/terrorpixel1991/pen/qBBNaeE](https://codepen.io/terrorpixel1991/pen/qBBNaeE))
 * My edit –
    ”
 *     ```
       #ast-desktop-header {
         z-index: 10;
         transition: all 1.4s;
           padding: 1px 0;
           width: 100%;
           background: black;
           position: fixed !important;
         }
       ```

 * HI Samit,
 * I would either restore from a backup OR restore from the hosts automated backup.
   This doesn’t rectify the issue but it allows you to rollback and plan ahead /
   work on a staging site, on a totally seperate domain.
 * I would use Updraft & Duplicator to do the backups moving forward.

 * Hi Gr0m3r,
 * It depends – how security savy are you? What is the risk relative to the initial/
   pproposed income of the site?
 * I would do this:
    1) Daily backups with Updraft to an offsite location like Google
   Drive. 2) Bi-daily backups using Duplicator. 3) Cloudflare (free) + Wordfence(
   free) make a solid solution, provided you adjust things properly, setup 2FA for
   CF & WF (use Wordfence 2FA plugin for this) etc. 4) Connect your site to WordFence
   Central & monitor it.
 * Once you’re satisfied with the general security, look at Cloudflare & Wordfence
   premium.
 * Regarding it slowing down your site, if you make things like logging too aggressive,
   or have a poor site-host, then yes, it can and probably will slow your site down.
 * There are other security area’s aswell EG your mail server & it’s mail records(
   SPF/DKIM etc) to configure. Your email client (Outlook) also plays a role. Security
   is an ongoing, best effort, layered appraoch.
