Written by Dan Mossop

Eliminating the bottom border bar from the Divi standard header creates a cleaner and more modern look on your website. This change can help your header blend seamlessly with the rest of the page, offering a sleeker appearance and improved visual consistency. In this guide we show you how to remove the bottom border bar from the Divi header to enhance your site's design using either the Divi Booster plugin or some custom CSS.

Remove the Bottom Border Bar from the Divi Header using Divi Booster

This method demonstrates how to remove the bottom border bar from the Divi standard header by using the Divi Booster plugin. It's an efficient, no-code approach that allows you to quickly toggle the border setting through an intuitive options panel, making it ideal for users who want a hassle-free solution.

Access Divi Booster Header Settings

To get started, open the Divi Booster settings from the Divi menu in the WordPress admin sidebar. Next, expand the 'Header' section, and then open the 'Main Header' sub-panel. This is where you'll find the relevant setting.

Enable the 'Hide Header Bottom Border' Option

Within the Main Header panel, find the 'Hide header bottom border' option and check the box to enable it. 

Save Your Settings

After enabling the option, be sure to click the 'Save Changes' button in the Divi Booster panel to apply your update site-wide.

Check the Updated Header

Visit your site to confirm that the header's bottom border is now removed. Your header should appear seamless, without any obvious border or shadow beneath it.

Remove the Bottom Border Bar from the Divi Header using Custom CSS

This method demonstrates how to remove the bottom border bar from the Divi standard header by adding custom CSS directly in the Divi Theme Options panel. It's a straightforward approach that allows you to eliminate the box shadow without modifying theme files or using child themes, making it ideal for quick, code-based customization.

Open Divi Theme Options and Locate Custom CSS

Head to the Theme Options area in the Divi menu from your WordPress dashboard. Once there, scroll down to the 'Custom CSS' section and click into the code input box.

Add the Custom CSS

Paste the following code into the Custom CSS box to remove the bottom border (box shadow) from the Divi header:

header#main-header.et-fixed-header,
#main-header {
    -webkit-box-shadow: none !important;
    -moz-box-shadow: none !important;
    box-shadow: none !important;
}

Save Your Changes

Once you've added the CSS, click the green 'Save Changes' button at the bottom of the Theme Options panel to make your update live.

Preview the Header Without a Bottom Border

Go to your website and check that your header no longer shows a bottom border or shadow—your design should now look sleek and borderless!
