 * Hello,
 * How do I increase the page padding i.e. put more white space around the content
   so that it won’t be so close to the background border. Don’t know why it’s like
   that but I’d really appreciate a bit of help to change it, thanks!

 * hi,
 * If you have a website link that would help us out to help you!
 * You can do this with some css. If you use the inspector in your browser to find
   the section that you need to add the padding.
 * Then it would be something similar to this.
 * .container {
    padding: 0 50px; }
 * -Cheers!

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for using our theme
 * Please note that if you change the grid of the theme you can get the problems
   with responsive.
    The developers of Fruitful theme don’t recommend you to make
   such customization by yourself.

 * So are you saying there was a problem with me using that small piece of code 
   that Cheryl was nice enough to help me with?
 * Well what help/suggestions do you have for me in this situation then? It’s real
   simple, the text was a bit too close to the background border.

 * Hi,
 * It’s was a warning to all users not change the grid of the theme. The responsive
   can be destroy.
    To change the grid possible only with custom development. Fruitful
   theme design provides precisely such dimensions. If you need additional theme
   configuration and customization, you can hire one of our WordPress developers
   when he will be available.
 * Regards
