Aww, thank you so much!!! I'll be sure to ask about stuff when issues start to pop up!

Okay! I have a question! Do you have any idea how to make a header image stop repeating itself on narrower screens? I heard changing it from pixels to a percentage could fix it, but either my previous attempts weren't coded correctly or it simply doesn't work because something else is causing the issue. My site (& thus the header image's code) is from Sadgrlonline's Layout Builder, btw!

Oh, that's a simple thing to solve! For the image to repeat itself, I assume you're using it as a background image, right? So, on the CSS, you gotta set its background-repeat to no-repeat. Also, the percentage thing is mainly useful if you wanna make the background image responsive on smaller screens. I hope this helps! ^^

It's not set as a background though! I don't think the template has the header image set to background, & I have no idea how to change it to BG either. I tried adding your suggestion (which I did see on a site a few days ago) under where the image is in the CSS & it did nothing. The header is :root { --header-image: url('address stuff'); There's also #header, but nothing happened when I added your suggestion?

Also! When I change the image from px to %, it just deletes itself from my website for some reason??? I added width: 100%; & alternatively tried width: auto; & also tried both but with height, but none of these seem do anything OR it deletes the header image from the site?

Ehh, I'm not really understanding how this layout of yours is behaving... I've coded my site entirely by hand, so all I know is regular methods that work outside of a template. I'll go inspect your code and see if anything works-

Ok, it's apparently simpler to change! From what it seems, you already have a style set for the header in the HTML, so remove the height it has there, and only work inside the sheet. Second, I think you should replace the var method to fetch the image and use url("your url here") instead. Then, you gotta write in your CSS - background-repeat: no-repeat; - so that it doesn't repeat on smaller screens.

It's always better to work on the stylesheet alone than mix CSS with HTML. Things get mixed up easily like this, y'know? I also recommend using background-style: cover if you want the image to stay inside the header regardless of screen size ^^

Okay, I'll try to do that then! The style sheet was something that was part of the template, & I was just wondering this morning if I should try to move the design elements to the CSS file where it belongs! Thank you so much for doing your best to help me out! I appreciate it very much!!!

Oh boy, there are *problems!* Moving the CSS into the CSS has angered the code gods, it pretty much deletes a massive chunk of the site, & multiple things don't actually work in the CSS file; like the numbers on the side are either yellow or red. And removing the height cuts off the image in an unintended way! I am extremely lost, omg.

Update! The header repeating on mobile has been fixed! Another issue popped up, but it's not the worst thing, so I'm leaving it! I would like to ask this though; I added a table to my site & designed it in the CSS file, but the design doesn't show up on mobile, just desktop? I'd imagine it's because the rest of the CSS is in
