Hello,
My masthead menu (top-level) is wider than the rest of the site. I have the site as “boxed” but I am confident I messed up the padding somewhere.
I believe that I also messed up the padding for the breadcrumbs spacing below the masthead also.
Thanks in advance for the guidance.
Hi Fabio
Thanks for reaching out.
All WordPress.org themes completely overwrite their theme folder during theme updates. Changes made via Appearance > Editor will be lost during theme updates. Please rather insert your CSS changes at Appearance > Custom CSS.
It looks like you’ve made several changes to the style.css file. To recover you’ll need to use a diff program like: https://sourcegear.com/diffmerge/.
1. Download the original Vantage premium file here:
Private Snippet
2. Copy style.css from the vantage folder to your desktop.
3. Download style.css from your server. It’s at /wp-content/themes/vantage. You can also copy the contents of style.css from Appearance > Editor and save it in a text file on your desktop. Call it style-new.css.
4. Open both files with DiffMerge.
5. Locate all the changed rules and copy them into Appearance > Custom CSS. For example, you’ve changed:
input[type=text], input[type=email], input[type=password] { padding: 8px; }So that rule needs to be inserted into Custom CSS.
There look to be several instances where you’ve tried to set padding or margin without a unit. Padding or margin need a unit. 10 won’t work. 10px will.
Once you’ve completed this you’ll need to re-install Vantage to get the stylesheet back to normal. The menu problem is caused by a CSS edit.
Here is how you can restore Vantage: Page: Updating a Theme Using a ZIP File.
Once the Vantage style.css file is back to normal and you have your changes stored safely at Appearance > Custom CSS we can tackle the menu problem if it’s still there.
