New issue with the width of the content in the WP Editor (Wordpress 6.1)

A few days ago I had a related problem that you resolved by fixing a bug in GeneratePress.
Now I found something similar and I am not sure if I am formatting things the wrong way. I hope you can help me.
This is the website: Site
The issue:
I have set up general Content settings in the WP Customizer. Most pages use those settings.
For some other pages I have created a Layout with Elements that should override some of the general settings.
On the live preview it works, and the page looks exactly how I want it to look.
But in the Wordpress Editor, the content looks very narrow and difficult to work with it.
My guess is that I am adding a big padding in the customizer and then a big padding in the editor, but with the Layout Element I am overriding the Customizer padding. I did not have this problem before updating to Wordpress 6.1, by the way.
Here are some screenshots:
- Customizer settings
- What a standard page would look like with those settings
- My new Elements Layout Settings to override the Customizer settings
- This is what the live page looks like
- This is what it looks like in the Wordpress 6.1 editor
I have already cleaned the cache and deactivated all plugins but GeneratePress and GenerateBlocks.
I left some guest credentials in the private area in case you guys need to have a look.
Thanks a lot.
Hi there,
I'm not able to log in with those details. Can you double-check?
Let me know :)
Hi,
Sorry I must have copied something wrong. Here's the details again.
Hi there,
I just wanted to let you know that I modified my Elements layout and now everything looks good in the Wordpress Editor.
I just made it full width and added the padding I needed in a container in the editor. It makes more sense this way and doesn't add weird paddings.
Thanks!
No problem! I was trying to reproduce this issue on my end but it was hard to replicate. I'll keep trying to see if I can improve the width calculations.
