# Header width changed

 * I think it’s since the latest WP update that on certain pages my site’s header
   is missing padding left and right or whatever. I have no idea, I’m not a programmer.
   I messed around with the theme, added code snippets here and there, additional
   CSS, too.
 * I’m not familiar with the block editor, I entered content in the template styles
   instead of the pages directly. But it all worked until recently. I have changed
   nothing in between, but when you compare e.g. the [starting page](https://drikkes.com/)
   to the [blog archive](https://drikkes.com/?page_id=7990), single posts or [this page](https://drikkes.com/?page_id=26),
   you see the different header widthes.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fheader-width-changed%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey there, were you already able to resolve this? I’m seeing consistent header
   widths across those pages currently.

 * Thanks for asking. With lots of trial and error, I managed to solve the header
   problem by myself. So I marked the case as resolved.
 * One minor thing I can’t get right: On [single posts like this](https://drikkes.com/?p=18370)
   the three colums between content and footer – why are the more left aligned than
   the rest of the site? I don’t get it and can’t find a way to change it.

 * Ah okay. Did you need to add CSS to fix it? I wasn’t able to spot the issue on
   theme demo, so I’m curious about the cause.

 * Hmm, it’s hard to tell, honestly. Might be some setting in the columns somewhere.
 * Are they aligned correctly in the site editor, just not on the live site?

 * At the end I made a completely new header and exchanged it in all templates. 
   I only use additional CSS for different background and link hover colors on certain
   subpages. My coding skills are very limited. So I would not even know, what to
   enter to adress a certain block with CSS.
 * When I try to style the colomn block in the editor with by adding padding or 
   margins or use a frame, then on desktop it looks a bit more centered, but then
   the mobile view gets ugly.
 * As said, it’s only a minor annoyance. I don’t want to slim the whole site, because
   when [using featured images](https://drikkes.com/?p=18164), I like that they 
   are full width.
