[Support request] Page Builder Container Full Width By Default

[Samuel]

Hello GP Community!

I’ve been really enjoying the GP and Elementor setup so far. It has really upped our web development game!

I was wondering if it’s possible to change all the existing pages’ Page Builder Container meta box setting from Default to Full Width? I have some custom CSS and it seems to only apply when Full Width is selected. If not, having Full Width be pre-selected for new posts would be wonderful instead of Default.

Thanks in advance for your input!

Hi there,

I’ve actually logged this as a future feature couple days ago.

For now we have to use CSS. Are you looking to make default for both pages and posts?

Let me know.

I’d like to support this too please.

It seems strange to be able to set ‘Full Width’ within the page ‘Layout Options’, but not set this as a global option so that it occurs under ‘default’.

It’d be nice to have set default for pages and post separately, but that’s not urgent.

Generally I use Elementor for pages, but posts are built using WordPress Editor (just text and some images).

To change all pages to full width, you can use this CSS:

.page .container.grid-container {
    max-width: 100%;
}

For all posts:

.single .container.grid-container {
    max-width: 100%;
}

For pages and posts:

.container.grid-container {
    max-width: 100%;
}

Agree with Samuel – I’d like this as well.

Leo – It would be great to be able to set the full width option for both posts and pages.

Hi everyone,

any chance to set the padding to 0 just for single posts?

Thanks a lot!

[Leo]

Try this:

.single .container.grid-container {
    max-width: 100%;
}

[Manuel]

Thanks for the fast reply.
That’s what I’ve tried but the padding is still there.

[Leo]

Can you open a new topic and link me to the page in question?

Thanks!

[Manuel]

Ok, no problem.

[Leo]

Thanks 🙂

Do you have any news about this feature?

[Leo]

Not yet unfortunately.

The CSS solution should work just as well for now though.

Thanks for your patience!

This is exactly what I want, as well. I’m using GeneratePress as “the ideal solution to use with Beaver Builder”, so anything that makes that easier is a plus.

This is on our list 🙂

Just trying to find way to make the user interface easy for everyone.
