You’ll need to use Custom CSS (in Site Options > Custom Code > Custom CSS). CSS that changes the style of a page element consists of two parts: the selector and the attribute.

Selector: Used to select the page element you want to change (in this case, the page element you want to change is your text).
Attribute: Property that determines what kind of change you want (you’re changing the text position, so the attribute you want to use is the margin property).

To find the selector for the text, you'll need to use Firebug (or Chrome Development tools). To learn how to use Firebug for CSS customizations, please read and follow these instructions:

thanks I found some code in the forums which I've used but the text wont stay on the same row, any ideas?

You'll need to increase the width of the <DIV> layer the text is in so that it's wide enough to fit the entire line. The width attribute is:

Replace # with the number of pixels.

Ok I think the div layer is <div class="icons" style="bottom: -48px; right: px;"> is that right?

[catrina]

What code are you using to add the text?

[mooihoek]

Im using

add_action('pagelines_branding_icons_start', 'brand_phone');
function brand_phone(){ ?>
<h6 class="phoneRight">Tel 0203777546</h6>
<?php
}

If there a better and more simple way Im keen to find out!

You should use a DIV layer instead of a heading tag:

And then add this CSS to Custom CSS:

Change # to the DIV layer width.

Do you need further assistance with anything else or did the code work?
