Make sure you are editing the styles.css file. Do a search for the .wrap section and confirm it is the same as posted above. If it is not, you might not be in the right file.

Also note that if the theme is updated or re-installed, you will lose the changes.

Other than that, I can’t say why the changes might not be sticking.

What version of oxygen are you using?

Are you changing the template on a self-hosted wordpress site?

For those following the thread, here is the solution that worked for me:

1. edit styles.css found under Appearance/Editor
2. replace the following:

.wrap {
	max-width: 940px;
	margin: 0 auto;
	position: relative;
}

with this:

.wrap {
background-color: white;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 940px;
padding: 0 30px;
position: relative;
}

done!

ah, I saw your other post and added the padding.

all good now.

Thanks!

Luis

oh thank you!

It seems to work, except for the margins.

They white area around the content needs to be extended a bit.

Would that be done increasing the max-width?

THanks again!

ah…the pictures have to be set as FEATURED IMAGE in the post so that it will show up under a category filter.

Ok, thanks

Is there a way to speedup primary|secondary themes?

They are slower on my hosted wordpress site than on the wordpress.com site.

Cheers.

Luis

same issue…
