How to control header (& image) height

**GK User** Tue Apr 28, 2015 2:12 am

Hi, I would like to control the size (height) of the headers on each page. Is this possible and if so, how?

They are set globally in template settings.
You might use page suffixes (also template settings) to prefix body element, and then use override.css to use those prefixed body element and declare different height.

That sounds promising, can you give me a head start on how to do that please?
Just an example so I can play around with it to figure it out?

Yes, no problem

.
https://www.gavick.com/documentation/un ... mla-pages/
above documentation shows you how to add page suffix.
Lets pretend you have added:
"customheared"
suffix.
Now please edit: /templates/gk_quark/css/override.css and add at its end:

Code: Select all: .customheader #gkHeaderMod {height: 150px !important;}

where customheader is your suffix.
Remember to enable "CSS override" in template settings - advanced section.

The only problem with this solution is it will change header height for all devices - no rwd control, but you can go even further and setup it with media queries to set different heights for different screen widths.

thank you i'll give that a try

Please let me know if you have any issues with this solution.

Yeah thank you again Cyberek, I do appreciate your expertise, but I don't have the skills to follow through with the other media queries so it's not my solution. I think I might need to try another template as there are too many things I'm not able to adjust instinctively. Unfortunately I'm no not even able to download any template files so I'm not a happy customer at the moment :/

Why can't you download? Maybe your subscription has expired?

no I've only joined up about 8 weeks ago for lifetime, and am not able to access anything other than this forum and the general access sections of the site. Neither browsers are allowing me in. Have already added a post but not getting anywhere - will have to try contact them again....

sorry to keep you waiting. apparently my account had been changed to another language and has been changed back to english. so I'm back now and have lost my train of thought so i might get back to you on this once i catch up to where I was at (remember what i didn't know).

Feel free to post new forum threads - it allows us to answer you faster if you have any other questions (not relative to this thread).

It's taken ages but I've finally followed these instructions but am not seeing any change

It doesn't appear that the suffix is being added to the page id. Only the class Dark-bg is showing in the body tag.
Can you please help?

Could you please post a screenshot of page suffix settings?
