  Is there a way to shorten the space between the bottom of the Nav bar and the first line of text?
  Also when using the linking tool can you use shorter text rather than the whole URL

  Thanks

  Are you experienced at CSS editing and have you purchased the annually renewable custom design upgrade?

  Here’s my CSS editing so far…

  #content .entry-title {
  color:#CC9966;
  font-size:21px;
  font-weight:bold;
  line-height:1.3em;
  margin-bottom:0;
  display:none;
  }

  #wrapper {
  background:#9F8265;
  margin-top:20px;
  padding:0 20px;
  }

  #header {
  background:#1E1C41 url(‘images/header_bg.jpg’) no-repeat scroll 0 0;
  height:241px;
  text-align:left;
  width:5500px;
  margin:0 0 5px;
  padding:0;
  }

  #site-title,#site-description {
  display:none;
  }

  #branding #searchform {
  display:none;
  }

  I don’t help with CSS. I have flagged this thread so it’s moved to the CSS Forum for you and that’s where you will get help. :)

  To make the gap between the top navigation and page content smaller on Twenty Eleven pages, try this:

  .singular .hentry, .singular.page .hentry {
      padding: 0px;
  }

  Note that the .edit-link “Edit” button doesn’t show up unless you are logged in, so it’s not really important to move.

  When using the linking tool, you should highlight any text you’d like in the content, then click the link button and put a full URL starting with http:// as the URL.

  Wow that worked great…I’m assuming that adding pixels to the padding would increase the space.

  Figured out the linking issue just cant get the update button to appear to make the changes?

  Thankyou…

  Yep, adding pixels would increase the space. Try it out! If you haven’t seen it already, try Firebug for Firefox because it will let you edit the CSS one the page to try stuff out. http://getfirebug.com/

  Hm, I just tested editing a link and it worked in my test. Can you please try clearing browser cache and cookies as a precautionary step and try again? :)
