 * Hi! I’m loving Kale so far and will probably upgrade to Pro. I’m just a bit stuck
   on a couple of things.
 * 1. Is it possible to remove the background and increase the page/ content width
   to 100%?
 * 2. On pages is it possible to show ‘show previous/ show next’ on each page (similar
   to posts)?
 * 3. I know I can edit the footer in my child theme (to remove Kale by LyraThemes.
   com) but is this visible is the Pro version?
 * Many thanks!!!

 * Hello @djrs,
 * Hope you are having a great day and thanks for contacting us!
 * **#1,** it is possible, but it will require a CSS cope snippet, Could you share
   your URL so I can see this first hand?
 * **#2,** There are two ‘built-in’ ways of doing this in WordPress (but it’s not
   something within the theme):
 * A) If you need access to the link as a PHP variable, try Using get_next_posts_link
 *     ```
       <?php $nextLink = get_next_posts_link( $label , $max_pages ); ?>
       <?php $previousLink = get_previous_posts_link( $label ); ?>
       ```
   
 * From here the links are stored in variables and you can do whatever you’d like
   with them.
 * B) Otherwise use these:
 *     ```
       <?php next_posts_link( $label , $max_pages ); ?>
       <?php previous_posts_link( $label ); ?>'
       Where $label is the name of the link ( "Next Page" in your case ) and $max_pages is the max number of pages (if you want a limit), that the link shows up on.
   
       If you want to style these, without having to enclose them inside another DIV, use WordPress Filters
       ```
   
 * function apply_my_next_link_style ( ){
    return ‘class=”button”‘; } apply_filters(‘
   next_posts_link_attributes’, ‘apply_my_next_link_style’ )`
 * C) If you need even more control you can try this, from the source code for the
   above functions:
 *     ```
       if ( !is_single() ) {
           echo '<a>" . preg_replace('/&([^#])(?![a-z]{1,8};)/i', '&$1', "Next Page") . '</a>';
       }
       ```
   
 * **#3,** that text is also visible in the Pro version, but as in the free one 
   it could be removed.
 * Please, let me know if you need any further assistance.
    Kind regards, Diego

 * Hi again!
 * For #1, Please go to WP Admin > Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS and inside
   that box, add the following code:
 *     ```
       .container { width: 100%; }
       body.custom-background .main-wrapper { width: 100%; }
       ```
   
 * Please, let me know if you need any further assistance.
    Kind regards, Diego
