How to remove the bottom border in the Thesis header

by Wordpress Cosmos on November 13, 2011

Today I’m going to write on how you may remove the bottom border that lies within the Thesis header. The bottom border within the header appears by default but many thesis users seek to remove it. To remove the border one has to add the following code within the custom.css file.

/* remove header borders */
.custom #header {border: 0px;}

Once you add the above code just click on the Big Ass Save Button button and that’s all. Check your website again and you will notice that you’ve removed the border within the header. Today’s tutorial was very short but I hope that it still was useful.
