    Hi There
    I have generate press and the premium and running beaver builder

    On the blog posts which uses generate press pages the comments area shows good

    On other pages where I have customised the look with beaver builder the comments area goes full width
    which is not really very user friendly πŸ™‚

    Can this be fixed with Css?

    Many thanks
    Carl πŸ™‚

    Im using the most up to date generate press

    You are using full width content here:
    https://docs.generatepress.com/article/page-builder-container/

    I don’t think it’s needed? Maybe try contained?

    Hi Leo

    Can you have a look at this page…
    Im using full width here as it is double column (this is the page style for my main pages on my site )
    I activated the comments so you can see it there…
    https://www.carlbradbrook.com/contact-carl-andrew-bradbrook/

    also same problem with comments running whole width of the browser

    Many thanks

    I changed the width to contained on the page… (just to show you – ive changed it back now)

    with page container contained the problem is then my “Header row” I put in – which is specific to that style of content for pages .. doent run the full width and looks like a banner ad instead of header
    defining thoses pages…

    I have been through this whole width setting steps before and have set all the widths I want for
    various styles of pages for my site ..

    the only thing thats an issue is the width of the comments section… everything else Im happy with

    How do I change the width of the comments section . Is there CSS ?

    Many thanks leo

    Hi there,

    this CSS should do the trick for all BB posts – just adjust the max-width to suit you content width:

    .fl-builder .comments-area {
        max-width: 800px;
        margin-left: auto;
        margin-right: auto;
    }

    This assumes there is no sidebar as you have on your Posts, aligning it to just the content when a sidebar is in place can be tricky.

    One other question David

    How do I remove the comments date .

    I know that I can do it in a beaver builder module but this is not in a
    specifi module.

    Is there css for removing beaver builder comment dats site wide?

    Many thanks πŸ™‚

    Thx, so its just the WP comments form so this PHP snippet to remove the date and time:

    // Remove comment date
    function db_remove_comment_date($date, $d, $comment) { 
        if ( !is_admin() ) {
            return;
        } else { 
            return $date;
        }
    }
    add_filter( 'get_comment_date', 'db_remove_comment_date', 10, 3);
     
    // Remove comment time
    function db_remove_comment_time($date, $d, $comment) { 
        if ( !is_admin() ) {
                return;
        } else { 
                return $date;
        }
    }
    add_filter( 'get_comment_time', 'db_remove_comment_time', 10, 3);

    https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

    Then this CSS to remove the extra |:

    .comment-metadata > a {
    	display: none;
    }
