wide page content in twenty-eleven

  • Hi – does anyone know of an efficient way of creating a wide content area within a page . Twenty Elevens content is displayed with very wide margins and I would like the simplest way of altering the content area. I usually end up putting loads of css to do this.

  • Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues. Create a child theme for your changes. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.

    Im alraedy using a child theme just need some nice clean code for expanding the content in a page.

    I need help with this too and yes, I’m also using a child theme.

    assign a percentage-width to the #page div. Post a URL just so we can double check.

    This is how i’ve done it.
    Select Theme options in your admin area.

    select one column, no sidebar – then add code below to your child themes css.

    .one-column #page {
    max-width: 1000px;
    }

    /* PAGE CONTENT WIDTH */
    .singular .entry-header,
    .singular .entry-content,
    .singular footer.entry-meta,
    .singular #comments-title {
    width: 110% !important;
    margin: 0px 0px 0px -38px;
    }
