Elements on homepage not sized correctly
5 replies · Started by Gabriel on July 15, 2021
I have been out of town for the last two weeks, and have just returned. I was doing some maintenance on my site this morning and realized that some of the elements on my homepage are not sized correctly. The opening slideshow and two items below it are no longer contained within the width of the navigation bar. I updated my theme this morning, and suspect that the issue may be with that. Please advise. I was able to adjust the width of the slideshow through the page layout, but can't seem to figure out how to correct the others. https://harberphotography.com

Hi Gabriel,
The latest theme update only has one change related to the group block so it's unlikely the cause here:
https://generatepress.com/generatepress-3-0-4/
The theme container is correct as seen here:

Can you check with Elementor's support team first as the entire content is coming from the plugin?
Looks like there is an element on the left that's pushing the slider to the right:

Thanks Leo. I will check with Elementor. And since it sounds like the settings in Generate Press are not the issue, I will focus on the page layout.
One thing I will say is that if you are using a page builder for the content then it's best to use either full width or contained content container option so you can use the page builder to handle all the padding etc:

In the appearance> customize > layout > container section of the generatepress settings, there is no option for full width or contained. I am just seeing one container or separate containers. Am I looking in the wrong area?
That is a metabox setting:

Or you can set it globally with a layout element:
