    Aloha,

    Building a site with GP, GP Premium, and GB exclusively.

    I just want a full-width red row, with a container inner section.

    I am SO lost as to what I should be setting in:

    1) The customizer
    2) sitewide – with a GP Element
    3) in the GB layout panel

    It seems like this should be so incredibly simple.

    Iʻm trying to avoid the .alignfull hack because it triggers a horizontal scroll bar at browser bottom.

    Can you offer me some assistance?

    I have read forum articles, Facebook posts – I just canʻt get it 🙁

    Much thanks 🙂

    Hi there,

    you will need to set the Page Builder Container to Full Width:

    https://docs.generatepress.com/article/page-builder-container/

    Then simply add Container Blocks for the various sections of the page – this includes the content that is not full width this will include the title…

    RE: The Title – You will also need to Disable the Content Title.

    Then Create a new Container for your own replacement H1 Heading title.

    Thanks David,

    Sadly, I end up with a fixed-width container no matter what I do.

    I cannot seem to overcome the site width (1200px) which I defined in the customizer.

    ^ no matter what I do, I cannot delete this width value.

    I believe you have a layout element that’s setting the container width to 1200px.

    Can you confirm?

    Aloha Leo,

    I do not – the only place I set the 1200px is in the Customizer.

    https://jmp.sh/zOOldag

    I set it there based on a popular GB video by Mike Oliver: https://youtu.be/w6bkxoPu5_c?t=179

    I used guidance from the same video to create the Element: https://youtu.be/w6bkxoPu5_c?t=979

    Iʻve tried Regenerating the CSS via GB and flushing the site cache at the host level.

    I’m baffled 🙂 And appreciate your assistance sincerely.

    I’m definitely seeing this CSS which is controlling the content width:

    Did you check over all the elements?

    You can also test by deactivating the element module.

    Ahhh ha!

    My “Post” Element

    https://jmp.sh/OmQ5ATP

    But it should only be affecting the width for ALL Singlar Posts? Not pages?

    https://jmp.sh/t7vqVmn

    ——

    I remove the 1200 and presto! Full width on my Pages.

    https://hpi.ssri.manoa.hawaii.edu/

    Is the mistake me trying to control ALL Singlar Post widths with the element? Because doing so actually trickles to the Pages?

    Singular applies to Posts and Pages – think of it as NOT Archives.
