Max width of containers restricted to middle of page
11 replies · Started by Neil on January 25, 2023
Hello,
The containers for each section on my Generatepress/Generateblocks website https://modern-care.org/ seems to be restricted in the middle.
When signed in as admin everything appears to be full-width as normal. When accessing the website not signed in
it seems to have all the containers restricted.
In Inspect Element, when selecting the sections parent container and
disabling max-width: var(--responsive--aligndefault-width) seems to fix the issue.
I have no sidebars on and each container is set to be full width, with the inner container being contained to a
width of 1140px. Im looking for the entire container to be full-width so that the background images can stretch across
the entire screen, and the purpose of the 1140px inner container is to keep the actual content itself contained.
Thank you.
Hi Neil,
I tried adding /wp-admin and /admin to your site URL to log in, but neither of them worked.
By looking at your front end, I can see that something is adding a max-width to GB containers to 610px.
Can you try disabling all plugins except GB and GP premium to test?
And what's the WP version you are using?
Let me know!
Yes I will send the correct login path in the private info.
I disabled all plugins except for GP and GB Premium but still had the same issue.
In the backend, they layout looks correct with full width.
It could be some plugin or custom functions adding that max-width, or it's been cached.
Can you keep all the other plugins deactivated for me to inspect?
Yes I've deactivated all other plugins. Thank you for your help so far.
Also website is behind Cloudflare's CDN, andI purged all the cache for the website on their side which leads me to believe
it shouldnt be a caching issue, maybe from Siteground caching?
It seems all good now, so it should be a cache issue :)
Now you can re-activate plugin one at a time to narrow down which one is causing the issue.
But it might just be the servicer cache which has been cleared.
Oh ok great! So it was a caching issue, was it with Siteground's caching? Thank you for helping me out with this I appreciate it.
Looks like Siteground Optimizer is the one causing issues, I reactivated it and it shrunk down the content again. Atleast now I know that this is a caching issue. Thank you so much.
You are welcome :)
Try reaching out to the Siteground optimizer support, there might be some settings you can adjust to avoid the issue.
Will do!
