Hi, Crystal. I'm working on a website and the theme I picked doesn't have a navigational bar. I added this code to the header stylesheet:

However, now it's in the upper left-hand corner. (I just copied it from another website). How do I make it go across the page. The website for your reference is http://www.soaringspiritsga.org.

Thanks,

Jama

The code doesn't show up on the forum. You have to take a screenshot and upload the image.

Here's the link to the Try-It Editor to test out CSS before you add it to your stylesheet http://www.w3schools.com/css/t…..ay_inline2. Put the css between the "style" tags and the html between the "body" tags.

What I'd do is find a free theme with the navigation bar that you want, download it, and copy the code that they use.

I'll try the editor… I had copied the nav bar code from another website and it put it in the left-hand corner. Apparently I didn't copy enough. I've started over with the same theme. Apparently I changed something that really screwed things up!!

Thanks,
Jama

Were you trying to make a horizontal or vertical nav bar? You may just have to give it more commands.

Also, were you trying to put it beside the header? If so, you need to create a headerleft and a headerright and give those values in the style sheet. Then you can put the navbar in the headerleft area.

Confused I don't think this is something that I can help you with on the forum because it's really involved and more about customizing themes than WordPress. I suggest finding a different theme that already has the navbar where you want it. It's the easiest solution because even if you get it working, it has to work in all browsers.

I ended up just putting the navigational bar in the right column. There was a widget for that… I was originally trying to get it in the header area going horizontally across the page.
