  Hi – I would like to put the navigation arrows on my blog inside the menu bar at the top of my blog. At the moment they are on the background image I am using. Is this possible? Many thanks Fred

  Howdy,

  This is a pretty advanced customization due to the placement of the navigation in the markup. You can try this CSS to move the navigation to the top part of the site:

  #primary .site-navigation {
  position: fixed;
  top: 80px;
  max-width: 100%;
  }

  You may need to adjust the “top” value to move it where you want. Then you can increase the height of the header area to accommodate the navigation:

  .not-home .site-header,
  .site-nav {
  height: 100px;
  }

  But this will limit your site’s visible area on small screens/mobile devices. I honestly wouldn’t recommend it. :)

  If you have further questions, most of our CSS support is done in our community forums by both staff and volunteers:

  When you create a CSS-related help request, please make sure to select or link to the WordPress.com blog you’re working on and include a clear description of the change you’re trying to make. It really helps.

  Thanks Caroline,

  I think that changing the CSS is beyond me anyway!

  Best wishes Fred
