    After hours of neophyte (that’s me) floundering (i.e., reading forums, reinstalling WP and MAMP), I solved the problem (for now…) per the Codex’s instructions for resetting my password — in my case, by wading into MAMP’s phpMyAdmin.

    I should add that when I add /wp-admin to the usual localhost:8888 URL, which in the past has awakened the Dashboard, etc., I get directed to a WordPress login window that does not recognize my password. When I follow the instructions there to get an email reminder of my password (“Lost your password?”), no email is forthcoming. I’ve tried that repeatedly without getting a response.

    I believe I’ve solved this issue — haven’t found any harmful consequences yet, at least — by reducing the min-width from 960px to 320px:

    @media screen and (min-width: 320px) {
    .page-template-page-templatesfull-width-php .entry-content {
    max-width: 600px; margin:0 auto;
    }
    }

    Now I’ve discovered that when narrowing the viewport on my browser, to test my new template’s responsiveness, the 600px text width breaks down. The wide margins (between 600px of text width and the 960px wide container) disappear and the text width jumps from 600px out to 750 or 800px or so. Sorta sloppy.

    Can anyone advise how to adjust the responsiveness of the template to “break down” nearer to (or at) the 600px width?

    (I’m creating my site in MAMP, so can’t post a link to it. I hope that what I’ve written above describes the issue well enough. Could post a few PDFs, if helpful.)

    Good call. For some reason, I hadn’t put the template inside the page-templates subfolder. Worked fine once I did. Many thanks, paulwpxp!

    I’m missing something due to my ignorance. (More study of html and css needed.) If I simply paste the above code into my style.css (i.e., @media screen, etc…. .page-template-pagetemplatestext-page-php .entry-content, etc.), changing “full-width” to “text-page,” I get no change.

    My custom pages are indeed without sidebar. Narrowing the entry content section only would be great.

    Thanks for your attention!
