    I want to adjust widget padding but cant find where
    Or
    I want to modify container text

    when I search I get results posted 4 years ago and that’s probably fine but it seems the location of the css and php may have changed in child theme.

    Hi Mark,

    Widget padding can be altered with this CSS:

    .separate-containers .widget-area .widget {padding: 40px;}

    Or this CSS if you’re using one container:

    .one-container .widget-area .widget {padding: 40px;}

    What exactly do you want to do to the container text?

    We have addons that allow you to do both of these things, but I’m happy to provide specific CSS if you let me know what you’re trying to do.

    Thanks!
    Tom

    Tom,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I may not be asking the question correctly.

    The problem I’m having is the pic does not fully fill the sidebar.
    There is a considerable border around it.

    Hi Mark,

    If you have the Spacing addon you can adjust the inner spacing of the widgets.

    If not, you can use the code above to adjust the spacing inside the widgets.

    Something like this should work:

    .separate-containers .widget-area .widget {padding: 40px;}

    Then you can adjust the 40px to your liking.

    Hope this helps,
    Tom

    I got the Super Package I believe I will need all those add ons.

    Not sure how to make it work with my site.

    OK Got it installed reading through the forum

    Looks like you get the same install question over and over

    Now I have to figure out what all the plugins do.

    especially the Spacing addon (digging into that now)

    Thanks

    Should I be using GeneratePress or Forefront

    Hi Mark,

    You can use either as Forefront is a child theme of GeneratePress – all options will work with both themes.

    Let me know if you have any issues,
    Tom

    Hi Mark,

    This link may be helpful: https://www.generatepress.com/documentation/

    It shows you how to install and activate your addons and also has a usage video on page header.

    Let me know if you need more info 🙂

    WordPress SEO is definitely the best SEO plugin out there. I highly recommend it! https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/

    We should keep on support questions dealing with addons on our support site.

    There’s no need for keys anymore – all that’s needed is the email address you purchased the addons with 🙂
