How to Edit Header in Wix

Welcome to Ben’s Experience! In this tutorial, I will show you how to edit the header on a Wix website. If you are looking to customize your Wix site, adjusting the header is a crucial step. Let’s dive into the details.

Logging In

First, visit Wix.com and log in to your account using your email address or Google account. Once logged in, ensure you have selected the correct website if you have multiple sites. Click on “Edit Site” to enter the Wix website editor.

Adjusting the Header Height

Inside the editor, you can start by adjusting the header height. Simply click and drag to change the height to your preference. Double-click on the header icon to remove any unwanted space below it.

Editing the Logo

To edit your website logo, click on the logo and select “Change Basic Shape.” You can alter the shape of your logo, undo any changes if needed, and link your logo to a specific page. For instance, you can link it to your homepage so visitors are redirected when they click the logo.

Customizing Logo Text

Next, you can change the logo text. Click on the logo text to edit its content, layout, and alignment. You can also customize the design and set a link for the logo text.

Managing the Menu

Editing the menu within your header is straightforward. Click on the menu and select “Manage Menu” from the side panel. Here, you can reorder menu items, show or hide elements, and edit the menu layout and text alignment.

Setting Up the Login Bar

You can also set up a login bar in your header. Choose a layout for the login bar and customize what it displays before and after login. Additionally, you can edit your social links, add new social platforms, and arrange the order of the links.

Additional Customizations

In this tutorial, you will also learn how to pin your logo, ensuring it remains visible when scrolling, and how to customize the direction of menu items. For example, you can set the direction to right-to-left or left-to-right based on your site’s design.

Conclusion

Editing the header in Wix allows you to create a more personalized and professional website. By following the steps outlined above, you can easily adjust the header height, change the logo and text, manage the menu, and set up a login bar.
