  I need to make my header smaller in the Lodestar theme, can anyone help me edit the HTML?

  Also, can I keep the home page header large, and just make the other pages’ header smaller?

  Hi there,

  Is this for http://westoaksfellowship.org/?

  That site is not hosted on WordPress.com, but using the open source WordPress.org software at another hosting provider. While Lodestar is one of our themes, support for the self-hosted version you’re using is actually provided in the forum for this theme over on WordPress.org:

  https://wordpress.org/support/theme/lodestar/

  That said, you need custom CSS code to make this change, not to edit the HTML.

  Looking at that site, your header area does not allow much space to make it smaller, and doing so would mess with the way your site title is currently neatly positioned in the center of the header image.

  Can you give a bit more detail on exactly what you have in mind?

  I added some code to the CSS to make it the size it currently is (which is much smaller than it used to be), however now it has messed with the tablet and phone layout.

  The CSS tag I used for this procedure I found in the forums:

  .custom-header-image {
  padding: 0px;
  height: 350px !important;
  }

  I don’t see any WordPress.com sites under your account here.

  What is the URL of the site with the problem?
