Full Width on Blog Posts
5 replies · Started by Jaymi on July 8, 2021
I'm trying to get my blog post content to full width, with a sidebar on the right (similar to our other site, which isn't yet on Generate Press). We are still setting up the new site on GP, and want to get it figured out before we move our second site over. Can you help us figure out how to do this?
Hi there,
Not sure if I fully understand.
The content part in the example you've linked isn't full width.
That should be the default look when creating a post with a sidebar layout.
Can you link me to the page in question so I can compare and identify the issue?
Let me know :)
Here is how it's appearing now: https://longbeachkids.com/water/colorado-lagoon-long-beach
It looks like there is a left sidebar enabled, but there's not. I appreciate the help!
I'm guessing that you have a layout element that's setting the blog posts content width to 800px:

So start by removing that element and make sure the right sidebar layout is selected in the customizer:

Let me know :)
That worked! I actually had no idea the elements area existed...Rookie problems! Thank you so much for the help.
I think that element came from a site library import :)
