 * Hi, I need to change the width of my site title so it’s not all squashed up.
 * I have made many changes to my theme over the last 3 years of using WordPress
   and I’m proud to have done it all on my own so far. I just can’t find the right
   bit of code to set the width for the site title though 🙁
 * If you take a look on the link I’ve provided you’ll see there are three lines
   of text for the title of my site.
 * I just want it to all be on the one line and I know I need to change the width
   value of something but I can’t find it!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fchanging-site-title-width%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Thank you so much Steven! I would never have worked that out by myself but it
   works.
