 * Hi. Flat is a great theme, but I was hoping to customize it a bit. My site looks
   great on the iPhone (in terms of expanding to fit the width of the screen), but
   it’s a bit too wide on desktop monitors. Is there a way to adjust the page/blog
   width for desktops but leave it untouched for mobile devices?
 * Thanks,
    Amir

 * Well, for me it’s an issue with the way the responsive width applies.
 * In css you have this code:
 * [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) (min-width: 1200px)
    #primary{}
 * [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) (min-width: 1200px)
    .col-
   lg-9 { width: 75%; }
 * But I want to make this smaller.
 * It worked on the other [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/), 
   but when I change it for the desktop, it automatically adjust the sidebar in 
   proportion to the main content. I’ll get spaces then between my icons/menu in
   the sidebar.

 * Hello,
 * If you want to change the width of the Flat theme you should change this:
 *     ```
       #page {
        max-width: 1000px;
       }
   
       @media screen and (max-width: 1200px) {
         .container {
           width: 1000px;
         }
       }
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Rodica
