Hi @katharinaruess82,

Sure, you can increase the width of the text container with the help of custom CSS. I can suggest what CSS to use for this that can be added under My Site > Customize > CSS:
```
.content-area{
width: 100%;
}
```
However, Custom CSS is only available with a paid upgrade to Premium or higher.

Here are a couple of links to the support pages for more information on custom CSS and the plans offered:

Let us know if you have any query regarding this or need any further assistance.
We are happy to help.

Thank You!

Regards,

Hi,

That was helpful. Thank you.
I want the contact form in the page “KONTAKT” to remain as it was before i,e, only in the center. Could you please assist me with that?

Hi @katharinaruess82,

I am glad to know that I could be of your help. :)

Alright, to make the contact form appear smaller and in the center, try adding below Custom CSS:
```
form {
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    max-width: 60%;
}
.entry-content p {
    text-align: center;
}
```
Thanks,
