Bummer! The top padding for nav links should be 15px. padding: 15px 10px; there is a bug that does not accept my code

what am i doing wrong, it asked for 15px on the top, and so i have coded out: padding: 15px 10px;

what am i doing wrong?

css/main.css 
nav ul {
 margin: 0 10px; 
 list-style: none;
 padding: 0;

}
nav li {
 display: inline-block; 
 font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;

}


a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}


h1 {
  font-family: ‘Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;

You can also use: padding: 15px 0px 0px 0px;

Looks like you're confusing list items with anchor tags (links). They are two different things. Look for a selector that targets the anchor tags (links) inside the nav element.
