[Support request] Full width layout gutenberg – scroll to sides

[Karolina]

Hi,

I’m playing around with gutenberg and Generatepress and found an issue with full width group layout – it forces page to be wider than screen. Could you help me out?

It’s the grey section out there: https://shelterfire.tastewp.com/pouzite-stroje/ (page will be deleted in 7 days)

Thanks for your help
Karolina

Hi Karolina,

David provided a great summary of alignfull and alignwide here:
https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/full-width-section/#post-1376765

Looking at your layout, I would highly recommend setting the content container option to full width as David mentioned:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/content-container/

Then the Container and Grid blocks from GenererateBlocks to replicate it:
https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/container-overview/
https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/grid-overview/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/generateblocks/

It will allow you far better control than using the default WordPress blocks.

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Hi Leo,
I’m not happy at all with your answer. I would prefer a CSS fix. I don’t want to install another plugin for having just a basic thing Gutenberg has and what’s more – the GenerateBlock plugin is too creative, my users don’t need that and shouldn’t have it since they’ll break the layout themselves.

But thanks for showing me the project, it’s pretty interesting!

Best regards
Karolina
