 * Hi everyone,
 * I was wondering how to change the header height.
 * This question has already been discussed in the forum but people apparently found
   themselves the solution and hav’nt provided it.
 * I don’t want the header height to be set at a specific value (e.g. `.site-header{
   height: 100px; }`, I want it to keep adjusting but at a smaller height:)
 * Any solution?

 * I realize my question may be irrelevant…
    I actually achieved what I wanted by
   editting the css padding and margin of the header.
 *     ```
       /* Change header height */
       .site-header-main {
       padding-top: 0px;
       padding-right: 0px;
       padding-bottom: 0px;
       padding-left: 0px;
       }
   
       .no-site-tagline .site-title {
       margin-bottom: 0px;
       }
   
       ul {
       margin: 0 0 0 0;
       }
       ```
