 * I am using Credence theme, and want to remove the whole header, from every page,
   since I created a separate section for logo and a custom menu. Thank you.

 * There is no Credence support here, but you might be able to do that by using 
   a Child Theme to supersede the Parent’s header.php.

 * Whenever I try editing the theme itself I look through the css and find the code
   for the heading or whatever I may be looking for and edit it and add it to a 
   css stylesheet. Are you familiar with editing css?

 * No. Then every theme update will write over your changes. [Use a child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).

 * Thank you all. I was able to remove the header by adding some custom CSS that
   someone told me about to remove the header. Unfortunately, I was not able to 
   get any support from the Credence theme developer because I purchased their theme
   as part of a bundle through Mojo Marketplace. I do want to do the Child Theme,
   but all the steps necessary seem to be out of my league at this point, so I guess
   I will have to update the Custom CSS again anytime I update the theme.

 * Here you go:
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/child-theme-configurator/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/child-theme-configurator/)
 * All of my own struggles with the details of making Child Themes came to an end
   right after recently discovering that plugin. First make a backup copy of whatever
   theme file you have edited, then restore that file in your Credence theme. After
   doing that, start the configurator and select Credence as the Parent, then click‘
   Generate/Rebuild Child Theme Files’ and you will have one. After that, move ‘
   @charset “UTF-8”;’ to the very top of your Child Theme’s style.css and then copy
   your previous modifications to below everything else there and you should be 
   good-to-go!
 * Edit: At that point, if you wish, you can deactivate the configurator and just
   let it sit there waiting for updates until next time.
