Hi,
This is related to IE9 and does not appear on Chome, Safari or Opera, but I have not checked others.
The Site Message is pushed off the the right. It seems to want to start right of the menu item listed above it. I have tried going back to the Parent theme, changing CSS in my Child for #info-wrapper, #info-bar and div#info-bar h2, but have not found a correction.
In my search, I've found some seemingly unrelated errors, like my header does not have a closing "/" for the image:

Can I have a link to see this on your site please? I assume you've got customisations is why I'm asking if not just let me know if it's the vanilla design.
Sorry, I missed the original reply. I've been pretty distracted trapping and caring for a litter of ferral kittens, want one? :)
My solution was to just make the Site Message a single blank, use this CSS to shink it down, then use the Welcome message.
#info-wrapper{height:5px;
text-align:left;}
But I will put it back in place by upping the height to 50px and adding a yellow site mesage.
As I unfortunately suspected you have at least 11 JavaScript errors when I look at your site using Firefbug. These probably come from some plugins or modifications. You really need to get those sorted before your site has a chance of looking the same across all browsers.
Some browser will literally fall over (IE is known for this) at the sight of a javascript error and either partially or not load at all the content after. This results in what you are reporting amongst potentially several other issues.
The problem exists for the Demo for the Scholar theme, so I have included a screenshot.
As for the javascript errors, there are few non-wpmudev plugins installed. Most of my changes have been cosmetic, but I will investigate. Maybe you could list the names of the scripts with the errors.
The bug is that the message is shifted far to the right *only* when viewed on IE9. It gets moved out past the last menu item above it and will wrap to a new line if there are enough menu items above it. I drew the line to show how the message aligns.
I'm not a javascript guru, but I have never noticed errors in IE9 so I checked to verify that I still had "Display a notification about every scriot error." enabled. I then installed Firefox and for my home page I've attached the Error Console (all). I see a few CSS errors and some Chrome/Mozilla related errors that don't seem related to my site. If you could help me identify the script errors it would be much appreciated.
Just confirming that everything looks fine to me on ie9 (Windows 7) over here. The message is on the left on the psychotherapy site.
As to the errors, It looks like you've used @import in the bp-scholar child theme to include a bunch of CSS files that don't actually exist in the parent theme. Simply removing those links from the child's style.css should do the trick.
As you can see from my image IE9(V9.0.8112.16421 UpdateV9.03 KB2586448) on WIN7 of the Scholar Demo the text is indeed on the right. And yet this is not the case with image attached by James. So you can't reproduce the problem on either site. Go figure. I will continue to check into this for awhile, but I could be happy going back to my quick circumvention.
As for JavaScript errors I don't see any and I get the same SIte Message on the right results with the demo. I did not ask for any scripting errors to be diagnosed, as I could find none. I did ask for help to "identify" the errors which Tammie had already identified and which I don't see in my list from FireFox. I would like to look into them.
There are no imports in the child.css. There are a number of CSS errors, some related to my adding Google Site Search code which I will eventually get around to fixing, but I'm not asking for help resolving these. I displayed all messages only so that you could see that I had found no javascript errors with FireFox. Again, because I see the problem with the Demo they do not seem related, but I will attend to them.
Ok just let us know if you do require further help on this.
I can't really narrow down the errors as it's really as said a case of turning on and off plugins and seeing. That's exactly the process I'd go through myself. I know it's not the best answer but it's the right one.
http://getfirebug.com/ yourself I know it sounds bad to say that but it really will benefit you in the long run. If you can see yourself it gets none great as one result is the same as another when using it.
Screenshots just won't tell you anything as to be honest those errors are so often random it does require you to scale back and build back up - that's what I was saying.

Again, I'm only seeing this with IE9.
Kind regards,

That message is meant to be there in the demo I'm unsure what you think is a bug on that?

IE 9 shows the attached for me not sure what you are viewing it in to get that.
However, we can't really diagnose all your js errors. What we suggest is removing each plugin check Firebug as you do and work through each.
I've tagged Mason to get his feedback about tackling errors but he'll more than likely say the same as me on this.

Hi,
If you could attach the Firefox screen with *Javascript* errors that would help because as you can see my listing does not include such errors.

Just try using:

Screenshots just won't tell you anything as to be honest those errors are so often random it does require you to scale back and build back up - that's what I was saying.
Here is a tutorial on how to use it:
