Thanks. I now just have a few styling issues where the parent theme css seems to be ovverriding my header and footer css. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Keeping page styling with custom header](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/keeping-styling-with-custom-header/) * Thread Starter [tinywolves](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tinywolves/) * (@tinywolves) * [11 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/keeping-styling-with-custom-header/#post-5901839) * Hi thanks, this sorted the problem, however there is another issue now, which is that there appears to be a pseudo element just below the header.
