Steps to Add Phone Number and Email in GeneratePress Header
Having your contact information on the above-the-fold section of the website significantly improves user experience and makes it easier for visitors to reach out to you.
This simple tweak can enhance your siteβs overall experience and easy to contact the website owner.
Step 1: Install GeneratePress Premium Plugin
If you are using a free theme, adding a phone number and email address in the top section might be impossible, so get yourself a pro version of GeneratePress Theme.

Step 4: Design the top bar section in GeneratePress Theme

- Now, go inside the grid container, add the Generateblocks Button on both containers and also remove the colors
- Now, add a phone number to the left side with an icon and an email on the right side and make them clickable. You can get an SVG Inline icon at iconmonstr or any other site.
- The final step and important step here is you need to adjust the Layout > Display. For Desktop: Set Display to Flex and Justify Content flex-start for phone number and Set Display to Flex and Justify Content flex-end for email address. For Mobile Devices: Set Display to Flex and Justify Content Center for both phone number and email
Step 5: Manage Display Rules
Go to Display Rules and select Location as Entire Site.
Now go to the Element tab on the sidebar. Select Element Type as Hook and Hook Name as before_header.
Step 6: Hit the Publish Button
Finally, go to your homepage and see the top bar with your phone and email address at the top of your website.
