 * Hi, I’d like to have the Main section a bit larger than it is by default. I tried
   to change the css like this
 * #masthead #main{
    width: 1280px ; margin: 0 auto; }
 * but it doesn’t work well (not the whole part changes, it’s never centered etc).
 * I cannot find how to edit in the Customizer neither. Can you please assist? Otherwise
   I’d need to change theme which is pity ((
 * Thanks,
    Erica

 * Hi,
 * If you wish to make the page full-width, you can go to the **Appearance > Customize
   > Design > Site Layout** and choose the **Wide layout**.
    For making the page
   wider and not full-width, you can go to the **Appearance > Customize > Additional
   CSS** in the dashboard and insert the code mentioned below:
 *     ```
       #page {
           max-width: 1280px;
       }
       ```
   
 * For the main div, you can make it wider by inserting the below-mentioned code
   in the Additional CSS box.
 *     ```
       #main .inner-wrap {
           max-width: 1100px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Thanks.
