[Support request] Images without paddings but text with paddings

[Birgit]

Good morning from Germany,

I would like to have the images above the text reaching from left sidebar to right sidebar und even without padding to the header-image. It should look like this
(old website)
but it looks like that:
(new website)

The website ist under construction, so I can’t give you a link, I’m sorry.

Can someone help me, please?

Best wishes from
Birgit

Sorry, it’s too early in the morning…

It should look like this: Without paddings (old website)

but it looks like that: With paddings (new website)

Hi there,

Is that the featured image? If so try there is actually an option in the customizer to remove the padding:

If not then we would need to see the live site unfortunately.

You can edit the original topic and use the private URL field so only our staff can see 🙂

Hi Leo,

thanks for your help! It seems you should have a look at the site, but I am going on vacation tomorrow for 14 days. When I will be back, I’ll contact you again, okay?

Thanks again and greetings
Birgit

Sounds good.

Just add the link to the site and comment here again 🙂

Hi Leo,

now I’m back again. I’m sorry but I can’t give you the link to the site because it is under construction and the URL is still the wrong one. Could I make you an admin so that you can log in to the website? Is there any mail-address to send you the access data?

[Leo]

Did you make sure that image is added as featured image first?

Hm, I see no possibility to make images featured.

I will send you the login details in the next five minutes. Thanks for helping me!

Hi there, in the Page editor this is where you can add featured images:

[Birgit]

Thank you, David, I found it now but it doesn’t help with my problem. The featured image would be above the sidebars and the content and not in the content.

[David]

With the featured images add we can then do the following:

1. Customiser > Layout > Blog – Featured Images for Single and Page – Set the Location above title.
2. Customiser > Layout > Container – Set to Single Container and zero out the padding.
3. Add the code snippet Tom provides here:

How to add (Simplest method is the Code Snippets Plugin mentioned:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

4. Use this CSS to add padding back to the content:

.inside-article, .comments-area {
	padding: 20px !important;
}

Thanks again, David, I will try it tomorrow and then I will tell about my successes. 😉

[Birgit]

Hi David and all,

seems I’m too old for things like that. 😉 I tried it out and the result is two images. I think I did something wrong. Please have a look at the screenshot. The upper image has to disappear…

[Birgit]

Hm, can’t see the screenshot, so here is the link:

We’re almost there! Go back to Point 1. In the Blog featured images, there are three buttons for Archives / Posts / Pages. Select each of them and set the Location above title. That should remove the other image. Let me know.
