    Hi. I’m using the twenty fourteen theme. When It’s viewed on a larger screen, almost 1/3 of the the screen is blank. My whole blog displays, just doesn’t fill the screen/ isn’t centered. It’s really frustrating. Please help ASAP.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Twenty Fourteen is a responsive layout theme. Know that responsive width means the layout adapts depending on the size of the device being used to view your site. When responsive width themes are viewed on mobiles sidebars appear below the posts in order to provide as much space as possible for reading.

    The mobile theme is a completely different theme. When we use a responsive width theme we go to > Appearance > Mobile and disable the mobile theme

    Thank you Time Thief. I immediately checked, but the enable mobile option is already disabled.

    Hi there,

    After looking at the uploaded image, I found that what you are seeing is the intended nature of that theme. Please note that the theme is designed so that it is 1260 pixels wide. Anything past that will show that grey area.

    As it was built into the theme this way there wouldn’t be a way to change this. I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help!
