    I still need help Alex. It’s centered but there is padding on each side of the logo image that I don’t want to have there. When I change the padding the nav bar pops out.

    Hi Dlechner

    I’m very sorry about the misunderstanding. You can change this with some custom CSS. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    .site-header {
    padding: 0 !important;
}
.main-navigation {
    margin: 0 !important;
}

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    I just did that and the header moved to the left but didn't fill the space.

    Hi Dlechner

    Sorry about that. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    .logo {
    float: none !important;    
    text-align: center;
}

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    Hi Dlechner,

    If you’ve changed your mind and rather have the image full width you can do this by adding the following CSS. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    .logo img {
  	width: 100%;
}

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    No, thank you, Alex. That does it! I love Vantage Premium. I've used it on about 5 websites so far. Thanks for the great service tonight!
