The theme I'm using implements a slider image underneath the header, but there is no space between them so I think it looks clustered. Is there a way for me to get to the codin

For starters, is this a site on your profile that I can get to? If not PM me the url so I can take a look.

The answer to the first one is yes for sure. The answer to the second one is probably.

Also for the second one go look at Appearance-> widgets in your dashboard and see if it has one called "Footer" or something similar

The url for this site is http://snowboardiing.siterubix.com/ . Right now I just have filler images inside the slider, so it looks a little rough. It may still not look good with the space put in, but I wanted to try it to see if I could make it work. And also I've just been wondering in general if there's a way to get to the code in wordpress, cause some things are just easier to code yourself ya know? If you get a chance to take a look at it I would greatly appreciate it!

I'm looking at it, but out of curiosity how much coding do you know?

So, you can get a plugin that will let you add css to your header. I don't have one to recommend but if you just do a search you should be able to find one. The code you want to add is

<style>
#welcomesection {
padding: 45px 0 0 0;
}
</style>

That is actually what it is now, so once you add that just keep increasing the 45 until you get the spacing you want.

I'm definitely not an expert at it. I studied some web design in college which encompassed basic html, css, and using software such as adobe dreamweaver. I don't know anything too advanced though

Awesome! Thank you very much, I greatly appreciate your time. If there's anything I can do to help you out in the future let me know!

Glad to help

I embedded a youtube video in a post on my site to share the content. Can I take a screenshot at a point in the video and use it as the featured image for the post? Or do I hav

As long as you let it be known where it came from and who's it is than the answer is yes

Best way to ask for permission.

You would have to ask for permission to do that.

Okay thank you!

When I type my url into google the home title and description of another site come up, but when I click on it I am taken to my site. My site manager says my site is not indexed

Give it time, when Google indexes your site, your site will be seen initially. This just means that the previous site was indexed, as long as the link directs to your site, it's all good.

Awesome, thank you very much!
