 * Hi,
 * I’m a wordpress newbie, using Sydney, and I can’t find the solution to decrease
   the size between the page title and the text/body. I understand it’s something
   I need to change in style.css, but I don’t know where. Anybody have the answer?

 * That is a local install, only you can view that. I installed the theme real quick
   to take a look, there is a 30px margin on the bottom of the page titles. You 
   can override that by adding the following CSS in either a custom CSS plugin or
   via your [child theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) style.css. I
   wouldn’t recommend editing the parent theme style.css since those changes may
   be lost if the theme updates.
 *     ```
       .single .entry-header, .page .entry-header {
           margin-bottom: 0px;
       }
       ```
