Increasing site content width

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I'm using the Alex template and I'd like to increase the width of the content areas. The banner areas are full screen but the page content is narrower. Did I miss the site width setting in the design styles? Is there css I can use?

I've attached some screenshots of the design I'm trying to achieve from another template where I could control the site width. The active site I'm working on is https://igcalgary.com/home

Thanks for your help.

Hi @tuanphan The same question here. I'm using Alex template too and my page doesn't display full width. What custom CSS should I use?  I didn't quite get what should I put before {} in your code above

Below is the link: https://visual7narrative.squarespace.com/workindex-1

Thanks!

Rainefield, I just copied and pasted the whole code into the CSS editor and it worked, I didn't add any code before the brackets. What did you try?
