Full-width Page has no padding

    I am attempting to build an extremely simple, 1-page site. I switched this page template to full-width because when I removed the sidebar of the regular page template, there was a lot of blank space where the sidebar had been. After I switched to full-width, the padding disappeared. How can I control the padding? Here is the page: http://www.vanishingpointpress.com/

    Please note: I am not a developer, but I do know how to navigate the templates in the Editor.

    Thank you!

    I did a quick look at your site and it’s using sydney 1.05, please update the theme to 1.07 (the latest now).
    https://ww.wp.xz.cn/themes/sydney/

    It seems to me theme’s full width page template is missing a CSS class in this line #13
    https://themes.trac.ww.wp.xz.cn/browser/sydney/1.07/page-templates/page_fullwidth.php#L13

    It should be as this shown below, the missing part is the col-md-12.

    <div id="primary" class="content-area col-md-12">

    With that put in, there will be some padding from theme’s CSS assigned for the col-md-12 class.

    You can also use theme’s Custom CSS feature, if none provided just use a Custom CSS plugins or do it via Childtheme, and target that element and put in your own padding.

    Hi paulwpxp. i am a absolute novice in websites, i saw you fixed the problem of squashco. I have the following problem, i have videowhisper live cam chat installed on WP Sydney too. I also updated the theme to latest version. If i want to go to the performer dashboard, about 25% of the cam module on the right side is missing, i had it on other themes, but i like this one with the big slider at beginning. My question is, how I can change the width of this specific page (performer dashboard) If it is possible, please explain in “newbie” words what i have to do for that. And my second question, now when I updated, my main menu has 3 times bigger letters, how can I change them back to the size they had before? and maybe also the color or the background of the nav menu how to change. Thanks so much, i am really helpless now, and i have to learn it how to do. sitename is itsaboutsex.com .please note, that this is an adult site, but absolute harmless.

    Hi hijack61,

    The same would apply. You need to change the class on the primary div to col-md-12 as paulwpxp suggests. You might also think about removing the white background colour.

    Give me a shout if you need help setting up a child theme so your changes stay after update.
