How to make the blog content wider starting from left edge
5 replies · Started by Venkatraman on November 1, 2021
Hi, I loved generate press and purchased the premium plugin. But when I install the site library themes, I noticed that the homepage looks good but all the themes has made the blog appear in center. So, it's showing a space in the left though I only use right side bar.
I want the blog main content to be wider starting from left edge. No matter what I do in the Layout options, am not able to fix this.
Now, even when I reverted to the free version, it's showing the space in the left side right from the homepage.
I am not using premium themes because I always love the blog content to be wider.
Please help me fix this.
I have explained in the image below.
Above is free version.
In premium site library theme, the blog content width is even more smaller..i want it to be wider

Hi there,
each site has various setups that define the content width.
If you have a site you want me to look at please provide a link to it so i can advise on the changes to be made.
Hello David, Thanks for your time and response. Appreciate it.
Here's the free theme of Generatepress which I like as the single blog post has good width...starts from left edge and I also have used a right side bar.

And, here's an example of premium theme.

I used other themes but only this one is not so bad. I am Okay with this. But some themes in premium has the content area centered and does not start from left edge of the site. I am wondering why there's space on the left side when I only need right side bar.
Guide me if there's a way to make the content area wide in single blog post as below

You can change the Customizer > Layout > Container >> Width to increase the amount of space the page occupies in the browser viewport.
And you can change the Customizer > Layout > Sidebar >> % width to adjust how much space of the page it occupies.
Thank You David!
You're welcome
