Width Problem in Tab vs Desktop
12 replies · Started by Aisha on June 22, 2022
I'm using Avery template. How can I revert back to normal settings for the following -
1. Homepage width to the default template.
2. Pages don't have margin. If I use Elements and hooks, it gets cut off in Tab.
3. Posts width is way too much. If I edit in Appearance --Customization --Container. It gets cut off in tab.
I've added Link for reference.
Hi there,
Let's solve one question at a time.
1. The original Avery template is using the Full width content container option:

Looks like you've changed back to default which is causing the issue.
Can you try setting it back to Full width first?
This is what I get. Check img for reference. How to set it to full width, thanks.
Hi there,
if you edit the page, in the sidebar your should see a Layout Meta box that has the option to set the Content container to full width - see here:
Done
Let’s solve one question at a time.
I've set it to Full Width. What to do next, thanks.
There is no margin in Pages and way more margin on both side in Articles.
Can you go to Appearance > Elements.
Do you see any Layout Elements ? One for Posts and one for Pages?
Yes, For 'Blog Posts Width', it is all set to default, and Content Width is 800 px. For GenerateBlocks Full Page Width, it is set to 'full width (no padding)'.
OK, so the Blog Posts Width - you can either:
a. Delete that Layout Element, and then your Single Posts will use the width that is set in the Customizer > Layout > Container
or
b. Increase or the content width set in the Layout Element.
For the Pages Layout, you can delete this Element, and then your pages will use the Customizer > Layout > Container width.
Got you. But my question is what's the default setting of this Avery template? Because when I increase the content width in the layout element, the text/content gets cut off in tab devices. So can you please share the default setting of Customizer > Layout > Container and Layout elements? I like the original template the way it was and want my site to look similar. Thanks
