How to increase the width of the content area?

  • Does anybody know how to make the content area wider?

    The side margins are way too big at the moment.

    As a result, you have to scroll half a mile just to read a short post.

    My site is : https://www.iluvkratom.com. And the theme is ‘Twenty Thirteen’.

    Thanks,

    John

    p.s. What do you guys think of the font? Too big or just right?

  • Hi John,

    You can make it wider by using the following custom CSS code.

    .entry-header, .entry-content, .entry-summary, .entry-meta {
max-width: 960px;
}

    You can use the above custom CSS code in your site as described on the following page.

    I think you should reduce a bit the font size of content.

    Hey,

    Thanks, man! That did the trick.

    Another question…

    I wanted to take the font size down from 18 to 16. But my wordpress control panel doesn’t have a size 16 font.

    I have TinyMCE advanced installed…

    How would I add more fonts?

    Thanks,

    John

    Hi John,

    You can add 16 font size to the control panel of TinyMCE advanced by checking the option “Replace font size settings” in the TinyMCE advanced settings on the following path as shown in this screenshot https://i.imgur.com/wJPs7gF.png

    Admin Area -> Settings -> TinyMCE Advanced

    After checking this option you will see the 16 font size in the control panel of TinyMCE advanced as shown in this screenshot https://i.imgur.com/NvTsgIn.png
