 * Hi,
    I tried to change the layout so that the search bar disappears. In order
   to do so, I followed the changes suggested by some guy on the internet.
 * But, my editing changed the layout and is unusable now… and I couldn’t even undo
   it by deleting the changes. How come?
 * And is there a way how I can either undo the change?
    Or – is there a way how
   I can reset the code to the original code?
 * Thanks for your answer!
 * Ps. my site is akertconsulting.ca

 * Try uploading a new copy of style.css for the twentyeleven theme. In the future
   if you want to make css changes use the child theme method.

 * Watch out for those guys on the internet; half the time, they’re wrong.
 * Upload a fresh copy of your theme – which is Twenty Eleven – or the theme files
   you modified.
