I don’t quite understand what this is about. Can you show me some screenshots of it? See: https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/block-editor/#adding-screenshots

Hi @sibichan ,

If I understand correctly, about the header, I believe that’s actually expected behavior since you’re using a block theme.

For the cover, try this maybe, select the Cover block, then check the block toolbar, should be at the top of the block, for an alignment option and choose Full width. If that option isn’t showing up at all, could you share a screenshot of the Cover block selected along with its toolbar?

Hi @sibichan,

I can definitely help clear this up for you!

1. Why the header is showing in the editor Since Twenty Twenty-Five is a full-site editing (block) theme, WordPress shows your site header and footer directly in the page editor by default. It’s just showing you a live preview of how the entire page will look once published.

If you want a specific page without a header, you can change the page layout:
- In the right sidebar, click Page.
- Look for Template and select a template like “Blank” (or edit the template to remove the header component).
2. Fixing the Cover block width If your Cover block isn’t stretching all the way across the screen, it’s usually blocked by a parent container:
1. Click on your Cover block.
2. In the toolbar directly above it, click the alignment icon and choose Full width.
3. If it’s still boxed in, check if your Cover block is sitting inside a Group block. If it is, select that outer Group block and either set it to Full width as well, or toggle off “Inner blocks use content width” in its settings panel on the right.
Give that a shot and let me know if it works! If you get stuck, feel free to share a screenshot of your block list view (the icon with three staggered lines at the top left) so we can see how the blocks are nested.
