Blog post layout sidebar
3 replies · Started by Alexis on May 26, 2021
I am trying to widen my blog post | side bar layout.
I went to sidebars > single post sidebar layout and chose content / sidebar. It works, but it makes the blog post and sidebar very narrow. Is there a way to the blog post and sidebar so it's not so narrow?
Hi Alexis,
You can try increasing the max-width of the page's Container Width so the main content an the sidebar has horizontal room.

By default, I believe the value is 1200px but you can increase this to a higher value for more horizontal space :)
I tried increasing the container width and nothing changed. Do you know what else I can do? Thanks.
Hi there,
the Coach site uses a Layout Element to constrain the width of the Single Post.
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/
You will find it in Appearance > Elements - titled: Posts Width
You can simply delete that Element if you want to the single post to use the customizer settings.
