yes I have a back end on another server, but they share the same database so everything done in the back end is mirrored in the front end production site. I can leave it on for a couple of hours, not expecting much traffic.

ok, i’ll probably have some time to a look in approx. 2h
OK, for the menu dropdown color you’ll have to make a (very) small adjustment to your style’s CSS; in main.css change
.dropdown-menu {background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% #4C5358;}
into
.dropdown-menu {background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% #4C5358 !important;}
for the image over the video, you’ll probably have to exclude vp1_html5.css from CSS optimization.
fingers crossed 😉

THANK You!! the exclusion of vp1_html5.css solved the video issue.
Editing the menu is no problem.
So does editing the menu stop what ever the issue was for the header?
And do I leave the function.php as is with the code from above?
and currently the inlined all css is unchecked.
try commenting out the add_filter-line in your functions.php and see what gives. same for inline (but I suspect not inline will break things again, most of which could however probably be solved by adding some more !important flags in main.css).

The menu went back off center when I commented out the add_filter. The inline didn’t make much of a difference to the site.
commenting out the add_filter is not very important; the CSS that is ignored is already inline, which from a perf. POV is good (if it’s not a huge amount, that is).
so I guess we can mark this as resolved now. was an interesting exercise 🙂
have a nice sunday,
frank
so if I can figure out how to use css to recenter the header just like you did with the color, would that solve the issue?
And is inlining good or bad for optimization and speed?

yep 🙂
And is inlining good or bad for optimization and speed?
if the amount of CSS is not to huge, it’s good. if there’s a lot of CSS inlined (e.g. if your HTML goes from 45kb to 120kb), then it’s bad. also depends on your site’s bounce rate really; if people on average view multiple pages, then not inlining is better because that way the CSS-files can be served from the browser cache as from the 2nd visit.
