Thanks, but is there a way to make it fluid? Eg. push down when it’s needed to, but when the top bar goes away, it slides back up again?

You are a star! Thank you this worked perfectly.

Nope, I deleted my child theme as it was super old.

Here are the contents of the edits I had made in the child theme. If you can see what was causing the problem that would be so useful.

I am using Yoast SEO. I have the sitemap of that disabled and I am using the Google XML Sitemap plugin by Arne Brachhold.

Awesome. Thanks for your help! I will mark this as resolved.

Cool, that seemed to work fine. If I submit my homepage to the index will it drawl all the other posts on the site too, or do I need to submit them individually?

Fantastic! I really need to up my CSS game, I find it fascinating.

You have been extremely helpful, I really appreciate it.
