Here is a codepen to see the code I have written and works.
When I write similar code in my wordpress theme, my body appears above the header. How can I get the body next to the header?
[BONUS] What is the best way/how to align the body centered between the right-edge of the header and the right side of the screen.
Any advice is highly appreciated, and I thank you in advance.
[EDIT]: I changed my code for my wordpress site because before I was targeting body with css like I did in my codepen, but instead I created a div with class .site and am using that as the body. This is a temporary fix, but it is working as intended. How could I better achieve this affect so I can integrate visual plugin builders such as beaver builder?
HTML:
<div id="header">
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100">
<ul id="nav">
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
<li>Item Number 3</li>
<li>Item #4</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="body">
<div id="container">Body
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#header,
#body {
display: inline-block;
}
#header {
white-space: nowrap;
width: 15%;
height: 100%;
float: left;
text-align: right;
position: fixed;
//border: 1px solid green;
}
#header img {
}
#nav ul {
list-style: none;
}
#nav {
position: absolute;
bottom: 4%;
right: 0;
}
#body {
width: 80%;
float: right;
//border: 1px solid yellow;
}
#container {
height: 10000px;
}
HEADER.PHP:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url')?>" />
<meta charset="<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
<body <?php body_class(); ?>>
<!-- Site Header -->
<header class="site-header">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
<?php wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location','Primary','menu_class'=>'main-navigation')); ?>
</header>
<!-- /Site Header -->
<!-- Site Content -->
