Hi. This is not a support question but rather a question about some features.
1. I have seen some (or many) users requesting for the theme to have a dynamic width for content (beyond the current 1164px). How hard or easy is it to achieve that (like would it require rewriting the whole theme)? It would be interesting to have something for the content/page width like this.
2. Is it possible to design/add a minimalist demo for the theme? Something like this maybe. It would be interesting to see how a minimalist demo would look for the theme.
Thanks for your answers in advance.
Hi,
1. The post content width cannot be changed with a theme setting. However, in an upcoming major theme update there will be a considerable amount of flexibility added to how the post pages and templates are created, among many other new options. You will have many new options to create post pages, I cannot say more about it unfortunately.
2. There are a number of demos in work I believe, we try to create and add as many as possible. That demo you mention is somewhat similar to this one
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_lifestyle/
Thanks
1. That’s some good news and I like the direction the Newspaper theme is taking. Can’t wait to see how that major update turns out.
2. I have never seen that demo before. Let me check it out. I was thinking of doing an update and use a minimal design instead. Will try it out. Thanks.
Hi Simion. So, I installed the Lifestyle demo, but it seems to be slowing my site down or something else is happening because when I try to test web page speed in pingdom or gtmetrix, the request times out, but when I remove the demo (or use another demo like local news) it works.
That could be caused by an image that the demo uses. This is a known issue which we will fix. Please check and remove or set an image of your own in these locations

The original image will timeout since it will not be found, that could be what is causing the issue.
Thanks, I just removed the images and all is fine now.
