 * I’m new to customizing headers in WP. The site title and tagline do not appear
   in the header area where I want it. Instead, the site title and tagline appear
   below the image. I created a twentyseventeen child theme and placed the following
   css:
 * .site-content-contain {
    background-color: #d5ffa0; position: relative; }
 * .site-title {
    font-size: 100%; margin-top: 0; line-height: 7; }
 * .header-image .site-title a {
    float:left; margin: 0; }
 * .site-header .wrap {
    padding:0; }
 * /* Change header HEIGHT */
    .site-header { height: 200px !important; }
 * Thanks in advance for your help!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fissues-customizing-header-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Based upon your current CSS customizations, the following CSS should fix it I
   think (not tested in all browser sizes, etc etc)
 *     ```
       .custom-header {
           position: static;
       }
   
       .home.blog.has-header-image .custom-header-media {
       	height: auto;
       	max-height: 100%;
       	overflow: hidden;
       }
       ```

    Thanks, Jarret!
