Full Width Option

Hi Laurie,

You can set it up through a Layout Element - https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/

The option specifically is on the Content tab -
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/#content-1

You then set the display rule location to the post or pages you want to apply this on.

Note: The contents may not go full width if you're using any blocks (ex: GenerateBlocks' Container Block) that is setting a specific max-width limit. :D

Hello, Thank you for your help, I was aware that this could be set when editing a page, but thought that it could be set within the "customise" panel?

I have added an element that addresses the content but the header is still the width of the container (which I do not want), I would like the header to be "full width" as well (and add padding to desktop, tablet mobile as required).

Why do I think this used to be able to be all done within the customise panel??

Many thanks

Hi there,

Theres never bee a full width option for the Customizer > Layout > Container. You can fake it though by entering a ridiculously hight value like 10000 in the Width field.

Hello,
Thank you for your response, I have added the element to enable the content to be "Full Width" which sets the default content for the site to full width, I noticed that the Site title in the header was not full width, (aligning to the left as per the content). I searched online for a solution and found the following (https://docs.generatepress.com/article/header-layout/) that states that if you set the "inner" header width to "Full Width" then the site title should align to the left full width of the screen, for some reason it does not seem to want to do this, I have checked and cannot see any css or anything that could possibly stop this from working, I am obviously doing something wrong, could you please advise, thank you

That setting is still the correct one.

You set it up like this for it to go full width - https://share.getcloudapp.com/BluDrGZy

I've checked the page and it doesn't seem to be applied. Can you check again and confirm it it was published when you made the change?

Let us know. :D

Hello, I have checked and the settings seem to be as directed, I have attached the images of the "settings" and the "viewed Page" (saved and published), as you can see, the "Near Me site Title does not seem to be aligning left?

thank you again for your help

Can you try temporarily disabling ALL plugins except GP Premium and check again? (to eliminate potential plugin conflicts)

If you have CDN or page caching on the hosting's CPanel, can you try clearing them up as well?

I have disabled all plugins except GP, problem persists, please see attached image;

Strange,

Can you provide us temporary backend access to check things?

You can use the private information text field to provide the details - https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-premium-support-forum/#private-information

Hello,
Please see the required information;

Thank you

In the Customizer > Layout > Header you have 10px of left and right padding which is whats affecting the alignment. If you want the Site Title / Tag line to touch the edge of the viewport then set that padding to 0

Hello, I have set the margins to 0 as suggested, it is still the same, the site title is not aligned as expected?

Hi Laurie,

When I logged in, I can see that padding is gone, but on frontend it still has paddings.

It's likely a cache issue, can you disable all cache plugins( if you are using one) and check if you have server cache enabled?

Let me know :)

Hello,
Thank you for getting back to me, I do not have any cache plugins enabled, I have cleared the cache and the problem persists?

This is getting very frustrating?
