Couple of Questions

Hi, I have a few questions I did not see the answer to.

our site is: techdigg.com

1. How can we change the background color of the entire block. Similar to Engadget where they have the same light gray all the way through the post on the front page.

2. Is there any way to make the entire usable space larger. For example, the white space that currently contains all the content of our space, is it possible to be wider? Its just a tight amount of space, especially when you have ad next to post content.

3. Is there a way to make the menu bar go all the way to the edge of the browser window?

Hopefully my questions make sense, thank you

4. Is there a way to make the “load more” button at the bottom of the block bigger?

Hi,

1. A. Open your homepage in the Edit Page section like this – http://prntscr.com/djak7x
B. Scroll down to the Visual Composer editor and select the row containing the Big grid block http://prntscr.com/dk2msh
C. In Row Settings -> General -> Row Stretch, select Stretch row. Then, just bellow check the Full height row box – http://prntscr.com/djan7m
D. Go to Design Options, next to the General tab and choose the color you want for your background – http://prntscr.com/djao7x
The result is like this http://prntscr.com/dk2nfm

2. Newspaper theme has a fixed width of 1068 pixels(content), that was the way it was designed.

3. When you set a background color or image, the theme automaticaly becomes boxed https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/. The only way is to remove your background and
choose a Full Header style – http://prntscr.com/dk317u
4. Add this code(edit the padding and font size as you like) in the Theme panel->Custom Css

.td-load-more-wrap a {
padding: 20px;
font-size: 20px;
}

Thanks

Thank you

On number one, will that change the background of the post page too? Essentially I am trying to get rid of all the stark white. It’s hard on the eyes of readers

Hi,

That will change only that rows background color. You can choose a background color(in Theme colors) or image-(in Background), but the website will automatically change to the boxed version. Anything else requires custom css changes.

Hi, we followed the directions on stitching the page but it did not get bigger. Is there something else we need to know?

Hi,

The theme has not been designed to have a dynamic width. The container width is defined in the theme’s style.css file – https://www.screencast.com/t/CZsAfuXHWa but it is not recomended to change it because it will damage the layout of the page and all the elements that depend on that width – https://www.screencast.com/t/isBJFh4k3x9https://www.screencast.com/t/7EhgFluyy and they will have to be modified also and this requires custom work and coding knowledge on your part.

Thanks

We just want the width to be what you stated it was: 1068

That’s also the same width that’s shown in the demo. Why is our site by default not that width? And how do we make it that width?

Hi,

From inspecting you site I can see that it has a width of 1068px, the default size of the theme – https://www.screencast.com/t/zFQsYf7W like in the demo – https://www.screencast.com/t/RMsdrDv1yRS

Thanks
