 * For some reason, the contact link on my main menu dropped down to a second/lower
   level instead of staying in horizontal line w/ the rest of the menu items. I 
   would like it back up in a nice neat row. I’ve tried all the customize main menu
   tricks I could think of that involved padding, font size, etc., but I still can’t
   get the contact link back up in the original row. I would appreciate any suggestions,
   especially those that don’t involve css coding stuff.
    Thanks!!

 * Hello there,
 * I understand you would like all menu items to be on a single line.
 * It seems your site uses Elementor. I’d suggest you check the width of the site’s
   menu. Right now, it’s 980px. If you change it to something wider, all menu items
   should be on a single line.
 * Otherwise, we can use CSS to fix this.
 * Let me know.

 * Thanks for that suggestion, Prin.
 * I went through all the customize menu options and couldn’t find one that allowed
   me to check or revise the width of the site’s menu. Where should I go to look
   for that?
 * Thanks again for your assistance.

 * Hello [@trailsnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trailsnet/),
 * Since your site is using Elementor, I’d recommend you reach their support at 
   [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/elementor/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/elementor/).
 * Alternatively, you can use CSS for this:
 *     ```
       #site-header > div > div > nav > div {
           max-width: 1140px;
       }
       ```
   
 * To add a custom CSS code:
    1. Go to your site’s dashboard. 2. On the left sidebar,
   click on **Appearance -> Additional CSS**. 3. Paste the code and click on the**
   Save Changes** button.
 * Let me know if you need further help.
