It is fixed; I really appreciate it. Thank you for your excellent job and support.
Hello David,I´m writing because there might be something about the content width.
I have tried to fix by myself but haven´t been able. I´ll try to explain. When I
try to paste a splider carousel into a tab, the splider seems to move to the right,
like adding left padding and moving out of site content width. Also, when some blocks
are inserted in a tab, they don´t seem to keep the content width, they are usually
smaller, and they seem to grow as you insert more. I would expect that whatever 
you insert in a tab content, it would use the normal content width, as when you 
insert any other block outside of a tab.I hope I could explain it. I thought you
may want to know about it. Thanks you.
