    I found this at
    datatables.net/reference/option/searching
    ‘Searching in DataTables is “smart” in that it allows the end user to input multiple words (space separated) and will match a row containing those words, even if not in the order that was specified (this allow matching across multiple columns).’

    That seems to describe at least some of the expected behaviour of WPDA XS – Extended Search: a single word is treated as a discrete token, or any number of words separated by spaces are treated as discrete tokens – yet it is not how search works in WP Data Access, which I believe uses DataTables as its base.

    Has WP Data Access changed the default search behaviour of DataTables, or have I misunderstood something?

    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for your reply, but I don’t mean anything to do with the number of notional Bootstrap columns, such as 5-out-of-7 columns. I think I can put it most clearly by saying I want to make the main content container wider. Even with the full width template selected a simple block of paragraph text has a wide margin on each side, as does the header and footer.

    I simply want to use more of the browser width. With the browser window set narrow the content is 300 mm wide and the margins as little as 12 mm each. With the browser window set at full size the content is still 300 mm wide and the margins as much as 113 mm wide each. I don’t mean margin in any CSS sense, just what I see when looking at the screen.

    I have tried changing width and max-width in my child theme style.css for #page, #site, #content, .site-main, #main, #primary, body, #content-area and .container but nothing makes any difference. Please can you tell me which CSS attribute to use, which selector, and which value?

    Regards, and thanks again.

    More like 5/7 or 5.5/7 rather than 6/7 or 6.5/7.
