Hello!
WP chat guy told me there are wizards in this forum that could help.
It requires CSS.
Currently, I’m using the Edin template and the heading is very wide. When you open the website, I would like it if it’s possible to see the entire site on one page without scrolling down.
I always use ctrl and – but can this minimization be a default setting?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Jini, we can’t really control a user’s browser settings, so we can’t have it open in a zoomed out configuration. What we would have to do would be to make the top section
```
.hero.with-featured-image, body[class*="front-page"] .hero {
    padding-top: 60px;
    padding-bottom: 60px;
}
```
The original values for the top and bottom padding was 120px.

See what you think with this, and you can adjust the 60px example values as desired.

Ah hey! it worked but not exactly what I was looking for? I think I didn’t explain it very well.
I will try my best to be clear.
When I click on view page, the home page appears but the overall size of the entire webpage is so large that when opening the page, it shows the logo, menu and header but not the bottom part.
When I use ctrl and minus to zoom out lets say 30 percent,
the overall webpage decreases in size allowing me to see the whole page all at once.
This decreased size, can it be set as default? so that when others open the page, it’s the same decreased (minus 30percent) size.

No, that cannot be done. We can’t control a user’s browser settings.

In some themes we can narrow the overall width of the theme and make more visible vertically (because stuff gets smaller) but in the case of Edin, javascript is used to size the main page elements on the fly depending on browser window/screen width and we can’t edit those files or override the widths with CSS.
