Header, footer and bars

These sections live in the header and footer areas, so they show on every page. Open the theme editor, then select the section in the Header or Footer area of the left sidebar.

Every size setting is listed with its full range or its choices and the default. A dagger (†) marks a setting that appears only after you choose a related option. “Other settings” lists the remaining options by their name in the theme editor.
