How To Make My Blog Posts Full Width Again (Page Attributes?)

  • Hi there,

    I used to be able to customize my blog posts with page attributes to make them full width (like my about me page, which has page attributes and a checked box in the above screen options). When I am in a blog post draft, I don’t have a page attributes box to check to make that feature available, and it’s the weirdest thing because I used to have it. I’m sure this is an easy fix that I’m missing but please help ?? I really appreciate it!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi there,
    Page attributes exist only in Pages and not Posts. If you create a new page you will notice page attributes section appears normally (if not please enable it via Screen Options – More info here https://www.cssigniter.com/docs/article/screen-options/).

    If you want to remove the sidebar from a single post add this

    .postid-XX #site-content .col-md-4{
display:none;
}
.postid-XX #site-content .col-md-8{
width:100%;
}

    in your custom CSS box under Customize->Additional CSS where XX is your post ID
    https://www.cssigniter.com/kb/how-to-find-the-post-id/

    Then in order to make your single posts featured images larger you can open functions.php file and locate

    set_post_thumbnail_size( 665, 435, true );

    then change it to

    set_post_thumbnail_size( 800, 533, true );

    then install the Regenerate thumbnails plugin, activate it and go to Tools -> Regen. Thumbnails to run a regeneration in order for the change to be applied.

    Let me know if this works, or if I can help out more.

    This didn’t work for me!

    Hello @markwaregr

    I have the same issue.

    Followed your suggestion above* until I realized this is meant for 1 single post, as opposed to ALL blog posts.

    So for now I have chosen to add in ‘Theme – Latest Posts’ to the BLOG widget (Appearance > Widgets > Blog).

    Is there no way to get all blog posts to be full width?

    * .postid-XX #site-content .col-md-4{
    display:none;
    }
    .postid-XX #site-content .col-md-8{
    width:100%;
    }

    Hi,
    you can try this

    .single #site-content .col-md-4{
display:none;
}
.single #site-content .col-md-8{
width:100%;
}

    in your custom CSS box
