full page width panels
-
I am redoing our church’s website using the Pique theme. (It is hosted on a separate ISP.) We would like the panels to stretch to the full width of the screen. I posed this question on the main support forum and Kathrynwp responded and told me that it could be accomplished with CSS coding and that we would need to upgrade to the Premium plan. I just upgraded and am looking for help with that CSS coding.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
I am redoing our church’s website using the Pique theme. (It is hosted on a separate ISP.)
WordPress.com sites are different from self-hosted WordPress sites. (Here is the difference between the two: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/) Is your query about WordPress.com site or self-hosted WordPress site?
To get support on self-hosted WordPress site, you should post this query on WordPress.org’s support forum as this forum provides support only on WordPress.com sites. Here is the link for you: https://wordpress.org/support/.
We would like the panels to stretch to the full width of the screen.
If your site is a WordPress.com site, you require Premium/Business plan to get CSS editor and with the help of CSS, you can make these changes.
I posed this question on the main support forum and Kathrynwp responded and told me that it could be accomplished with CSS coding and that we would need to upgrade to the Premium plan. I just upgraded and am looking for help with that CSS coding.
Seems like your site is a WordPress.com site as you mentioned that you upgraded it to the Premium plan.
Therefore, if you have a premium plan then you can definitely make these changes through CSS. However, it will be great if you can share your website address with us. It will help us (WordPress.com members of this forum) to help you better.
Looking forward to hearing from you. :)

@richard0033, what is the URL of the church site? If it is on a separate ISP rather than hosted here at WordPress.com, you would not need the Premium upgrade. You can get a refund on that.

Hi vaidehisingh,
Our church’s website is destinycarolina.com and it is hosted on an ISP/webhost here in North Carolina. I downloaded the Pique theme off of wordpress.org and I am redoing our website on a temporary site my ISP set up for me (devel.wp.destinycarolina.com). Then when I am done they will swap the old with the new. I guess I messed up by posting my question on the wordpress.com support site. I explained to Kathrynwp that we didn’t need a wordpress hosted site and she sent me a link to upgrade to the Premium plan, but as you can see from my question above it says that I need help with the blog office409.wordpress.com. That is not correct, I guess that office409 was assigned to me when I first registered with wordpress. How can I get credit to use the Premium plan I upgraded to earlier today to my self-hosted website? -
Thanks thesacredpath,
I’ll put in for that refund and then ask my question on the wordpress.org support site. -
You are welcome. If you are talking about the width of the text on the main page, that can be widened, but currently the text line length is right at 66 characters per line, including spaces and punctuation, which is the recommended line length for good readability. Any long than that and it becomes more difficult for the reader’s eye to accurately go from the end of one line to the beginning of the next.
Currently the max width of the entry content area on the main page is 700px. If you want to play with widening it a bit, add this at Customize > Additional CSS.
.pique-panel-content .entry-content { max-width: 700px; }If you posted in the Pique support forum at WordPress.org, it may well be @kathrynwp or myself that respond.
