I'd like to add some space at the very top of the page.
So, I made my way to:
header.php
and found the following code:
<?php wp_head(); ?>
and pasted together a line of made up code without any real idea what I was doing:
<?php header_items( $horizontal_bar1 = ' '); ?>
I can't be too far off, it seems, because it turns my home page into one big blank horizontal bar - in the appropriate color.
Could anyone suggest a way to have a regular height %bar1 above the Header area?
