CSS help : how to widen the space between the columns

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello ;)

    I have 2 issues with my website, I don’t know if this is caused by the margin of the page or not…

    first, I can’t manage to increase the images in the “Portfolio” section, it seems the size is blocked to a maximum.

    and secondly, I would like to widen the space between each columns below in the section “Mes prestations”.

    I can’t find which parameter I have to modify with css.

    Many thanks in advance for your help 😉

  • Hi there!

    Each theme has a predefined width for the content area. I see you have already added a few CSS tweaks that are changing your site’s width. I’d be careful with those as this may affect your theme’s responsiveness.
    If what you’d like to do is to make sure the images on your portfolio are bigger, just below the Additional CSS section, you can add the desired width:

    As for the spaces between the columns, again, you can add those with CSS but it will not change the overall width of that section so the columns will be more narrow and possibly more difficult to read.

    If you are okay with that, jump into live chat from https://wordpress.com/help/contact and we’ll see if we can come up with the code for you. Thanks!

    Hi !

    Many thanks for your explanation. So, if I understood well, if I want to increase the space between the columns and keep the same width of those columns as now, I should change the content max-width ?

    I’ve tried this :
    #content {
    max-width: 800px;
    }

    but all the content went on the left side of the page and was smaller. I can’t go on the chat now, I will try tomorrow if necessary.

    Many thanks,
    Best

  • Make sure you’ve increased the content width first as my colleague mentioned above.

    If that doesn’t work out, definitely hope on a support chat, the back-and-forth to get this exactly right will take much less time that way. :)
