  Hey guys,

  I’d really like to increase the width of my post size, so that’s it’s more text friendly. The theme I’m using is customized scrollider express. Any ideas?

  Thanks a lot in advance for your help :D

  Hi, the content and sidebar are set in percentage widths of the overall primary area. Give the following a try and see what you think. It increases the overall width and since the content and sidebar are percentages, it increases the width of each. Increase the max-width value, to say 85.998em and see what you think.

  #primary.fullwidth, .layout-full #primary, .col-full {
      max-width: 75.998em;
  }

  It worked perfectly! Thanks a lot for the help! Is there possibly a way to widen the content area without widening the sidebar area?

  Thanks again

  Yes, you can adjust the widths of the primary and secondary. Add the following to your custom CSS and then add to #primary the same amount you take off of #secondary.

  #primary {
      width: 62%;
  }
  #secondary {
      width: 34%;
  }
