    Default Modifying Template Width - Text Only - Not Sideboxes

    I apologize in advance if this has been answered (probably somewhere!), I searched but didn't find exactly what I was looking for.

    I don't want to change the fact that my overall template (including sideboxes) automatically adjusts to screen width, but I do want to manually control the width of all the text pages.

    I would post a link, but no matter what I do google finds my posts and I can't have that. The reason is that I have a large logo picture at the top of my site (and no text to the right, all contained in the logo). I have received feedback that the page text "sticking out" past the logo looks weird and I aim to correct... thanks so much!

    post your website using yoursite (ddoott) com ( slash ) yaddayadda

    I really don't think google would find something like that.

    You could even do: yoursite.com backwords -> moc.etisruoy

    Only thing about posting screenshot is it still got your website url into the page, do a "view source" and search for you website - you'll find it

    o.k. are you hoping to control each text page individually, or are you wanting to have each page have a different setting?

    If you want to control all the text on all the pages, you will need to create a <div> tag to wrap the text in by editing the includes/templates/custom_template/common/tpl_main_page.php

    Also since you are not using the right column, you may want to get rid of it all together so that you don't see the extra white space on the right side (unless you want that).

    That is extremely annoying.. I will ask again and again, Moderaters/Admin, PLEASE give me the right to edit my own posts indefinitely....

    Can someone then remove the source containing my url?

    Thanks for the help rainthebat. I want to control all the pages at once and make them the same. I can go look up the tags for hard coding the <div> width then, is that what the idea is?
