[Resolved] Front page of site always adds side content padding

[Neil]

Hello again,

Yesterday I made a post about how my front page had its max-width restricted, support helped me find out it was
a caching issue by Siteground (my host). The front page looked correct until I reactivated Siteground Optimizer, which brought back the issue and has persisted since. I’ve uninstalled Siteground Optimizer, flushed the dynamic cache from Sitegrounds Site Tools side, and
purged any cache that Cloudflare is caching.

After more troubleshooting it seems like this issue only happens to my assigned home page.
I created a page /test and it looks exactly like how I want. I created full-width (inner and outer) containers then added 20% padding
on each side. I then deleted the original home page, and set the /test page as my home page, then it added the extra unwanted padding again.
Sidebars are set to Content(no sidebars).

I dont see anywhere on the backend where this could be an issue, when signed in as admin everything looks as it should.
I’ve cleared cache for the browsers I use to test (Firefox, IE, Chrome) and still the issue persists.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Neil,

We really can not help more on this one as it’s not a theme issue.
You can see something is adding this CSS to all the elements in the content area:

Have you reached out to your host yet?

Yes, turns out it was a caching issue on their side, I was just waiting on a reply for the ticket. There was a folder named ‘cache’ in my /public_html/wp-content site files, they renamed it to cache1 and flushed the dynamic cache. That created a new ‘cache’ folder and all was well. Thank you for your support.

Glad to hear that 🙂
