Filling the void

    I’m using the twenty fourteen theme, and my site has a huge empty void on the right side that I can’t seem to edit. (talkingaboutpractice.net)

    I realize this will likely require coding… I am just now starting to get into the coding aspect, so I have a child theme and am semi-familiar with navigating it, but I have basic knowledge at best. Please put it in simple terms, or provide a copy/paste and where to put it.

    Please let me know if/how I can resolve this, I’m looking for my header/content to either fill the entire page to the right, or to make that look much nicer in any other way. Any ideas, help, or input is appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi TMH,

    Use the following code in style.css or custom css options of your site

    .site {max-width: 1600px !important;}

    Where exactly would I put that/edit that? My child theme, or the parent one? My Child theme style.css has nothing really, the parent one is as long as the bible.

    Any hints on where to go edit that in?

    Stick it in the style.css of your child theme.

    or you could download custom css plugin and put the code there, if you would be making changes to your theme

    Ok, that semi-worked. (Downloading the customer Css plug in) It just stretched it out a bit, but it still has a void a little bit. But it’s fine, I’ll play with it more.

    But if you look at it now, the header is odd and off alignment.

    Any ideas for that? Thanks!

    Introduce this

    .site-header {width: 1600px;}

    and make sure the width of the header image is same. you could use another header or edit the same using a photo editor.
