Make blog wider when not using sidebar
4 replies · Started by Martina on July 21, 2019
Hi,
Hi, I am using Generate Press and the Dispatch from the Site Library.
I would like to display the blog without sidebar but when I remove it there is too much white space left. The area for the blog text stays the same. Is there a way to make it wider?
Thank you,
Martina

Let me know :)
Hi, I am sorry, I still can´t find where to adjust this. Is it in the Customizer or Element section? I don´t find something looking like this...Could you explain in detail please. I am using the Dispatch from the Site Library...Thank you in advanced.
It is an element you have to create (choose Layout option). Then under the content tab (https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/#content-1) set the 'Content Width" in pixels to the number you want. Then in the Display Rules tab, select "Location" as "Blog" then click publish. Check your blog now to confirm. (NB: I don't work for GP).
It's in the Layout Element section as explained in the top of the article here:

To create a new Sidebar Element, go to Appearance > Elements and click “Add New”. From the Element dropdown list, choose “Layout”.
