Hiding the Header but keeping the space

sarahinthelakessarahinthelakes Posts: 117Members
I am using the seyDoggy badNas theme and I am hoping there is a way to not show the header, but for the content to still show in the same position. I would like to have a wood effect background and incorporate the logo design into the background (this would go across the Header area) so that it is all one image.

I tried
#pageHeader {
display:none;
}

which made the Header go away but all the content moved up and also the tabs disappeared!

I did wonder about creating an image with nothing in it and saving as a .png and replacing one of the Header image files - not sure if that would work and it's probably a very complicated way to solve this.

Does anyone have ideas that could help me please?

    Hi Sarah; try this:

    #pageHeader {
    visibility: hidden;
    }

    Okay, I am sort of getting there.

    I have used the following code....
    #pageHeader {
    display:none;
    }
    
    #content{
        margin-top: 200px;
    }
    

    .... and I have hidden the header and moved the content down. I haven't managed to sort out the background yet (any suggestions welcomed)

    BUT my tabs have disappeared along with the header :( what to do???

    I realise the theme is not meant to be hacked around like this so please don't tell me off. If I can find a better one to suit that would be fine, am working my way through the Theme Vault, but my searches are too precise and I am not pulling up what I need. I am not giving up! I shall be here for a while and welcome any guidance! The link that shows background and no tabs is below - it's a bit brown - you have to imagine that is a wooden background!

    If you'd used 'visibility: hidden' instead of 'display: none', then your header should have become invisible, but still taken up the same space. So if you can, and have used, 'display: none', then why not use the other one instead? I can't tell you why your tabs have disappeared though.
    best wishes
