 * Something like this might do that, but possibly not for all viewports:
 *     ```
       #content {
           padding-left: 20px;
       }
       ```
   
 * I do not see much help being offered at your theme’s support forum, but you might
   find something there in a previous post:

 * edit: If you do not already have a Child Theme, a Custom CSS plugin might work
   here:

 * I have the same problem, have seen many posts about the left margin tight against
   the side. JackieBolen: Did you get a resolution? Your site looks good! I do not
   have a child theme.

 * even if are you using the same theme, your issue is likely different, so please
   start your own topic.
