Hi,
Sorry to be a nuisance with this. I am using the Volume site and wonder if you could advise how I may get the Pages to style similar to the Posts? The main menu links to Pages but these are looking a bit plain at the moment.
Hi Michael,
You can try this:
1. Go to Appearance > Elements, in the location section, add Pages > All pages, but exluding the Front page:

You'll need to add featured images to the pages as well.
Let me know if this helps :)
Hi Ying,
Thank you. That seems to work although it leaves the text across the whole page, is there a way to either add a sidebar ro split the text into column so that each page is not a whole page width of text?
Thank you.
Yes, go to customizer > layout > sidebar, select the sidebar layout you want :)

Thank you so much, I thought that would affect the GP Site theme but not so.
Thanks again, take care.
No problem :)
Hi,
Please could you advise how I may get the images to cover the whole header? Should I upload larger versions than the size recommended for posts? I have tried the previously mentioned steps which work but not quite how I need the header.
Thanks,
Mickey
Hi Michael,
Go to this block element, and change the background image size from containto cover.
Let me know if you need further assistance :)
Thanks Ying,
I see the same issue on the demo site pages. Can you tell me where the Block element is please, the image is set using the Featured Image on each Page.
Block element is at appearance > elements, findSingle Post Hero, you can modify the layout/color/background there.
Please refer to the screenshots below :)

We have some videos of the site template walkthrough, it's not the Volumetemplate, but should be helpful to understand the concept:
