1) You need to add top: 0; to your nav css:

 

nav {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
background: linear-gradient(-20deg, #e9defa 0%, #fbfcdb 100%);

}

 

2) You don't have a .main css class, its just the 'main' html container you are using, so delete the period infront of the css selector name and add a top margin to the main container to push the content down so it becomes visible:

 

main {
margin: 12em 0 0 0;
}

 

When you have a fixed navigation and use css to push the content down its just really a bit of a guessing

You are going to need to post a link to the page in question or code from your page to review.  Without seeing the code it is difficult to say exactly what is causing your issue.

To be of any help we need to see the code you are using. Can you paste the code and any css the page uses in the forum or better still if you are able to upload the page to a remote server and provide a link to it.

We still need to see the rest of the code included for this page (ie: CSS).   This is only part of the puzzle because if you have issues with margins those would be in your CSS document which needs to be assessed alongside your HTML.

1) You need to add top: 0; to your nav css:

 

nav {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
background: linear-gradient(-20deg, #e9defa 0%, #fbfcdb 100%);

}

 

2) You don't have a .main css class, its just the 'main' html container you are using, so delete the period infront of the css selector name and add a top margin to the main container to push the content down so it becomes visible:

 

main {
margin: 12em 0 0 0;
}

 

When you have a fixed navigation and use css to push the content down its just really a bit of a guessing game. Use em instead of px for the top margin because if a user zooms their browser text at least the content gets pushed down. If you use px the content wont move down and you'll find the nav, if you keep zooming the text, will eventually obscure the content.

 

The idea is to keep the fixed navigation as narrow in depth as is possible, yours looks a bit deep to me for a fixed nav bar.

@Mr. One 

In order to build websites, you need a working knowledge of HTML, CSS and to some extent JavaScript code. Without understanding code, it's unlikely you'll get the results you're hoping for. Read the chapters, do code exercises and take quizzes at the end.
