 * I just removed the sidebar widgets because the page was too cramped. But now,
   I need to widen the content window to take up a wider section of the screen.
 * How do I do this?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcontent-width-27%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * You can change the layout of the page from within the post edit screen. On the
   bottom right-hand side there is a ‘Layout’ meta box where you can select the 
   page width.
