Header bar over main image

Hi,
Could you help with 2 hopefully simple questions please?

I have a main image at the start of my website and a Header Bar (Fixed on Scroll) which houses a logo, contact info and Menu icon. At the moment, the main image butts right up to the bottom of the Header Bar. What I'm looking for is that the image sits underneath the Header Bar at the start, enabling me to make the Header Bar background 25% transparent, so when I scroll you can see the main image move underneath.

How can I do this? (Is it to do with the Z-index?)

Also, the Menu icon: what I would like is for the menu to be vertical when hovered over or clicked. So it is like a vertical side bar perhaps! But naturally when at tablet or phone size it is not so long and more in keeping with the reduced format.

Any suggestion for this one are welcome?

I've included the .zip so that you can see the image/header bar

Thanks in advance

Kind regards
Krav

Hi,

Open the options for the section that contains the menu and logo and set the position to absolute and the z-index to 5.
As for the menu, there is no such direct option, but you can try to set it to go to responsive mode from the desktop view, so it will drop down.

Hella

I have the same issue. How can I make the Header transparent so that the background image is visible continuously?

On Krav's first point - if it hasn't been resolved - it's possible to create a vertical drop down menu in Wordpress by inserting a Secondary widget section and adding a custom menu in Wordpress itself.

Cheers.

Hi,

What issue with the transparency do you have? You can attach your theme for investigation.
As for the menu, I have suggested to make the menu go to responsive in the desktop view as well. Or yes, you can add the custom widget area and use your own menu.
