  I am using Dara on my website (judy-blair.com) with a static front page. The page attributes are set to “Default”, but the front page is significantly wider than the other pages.

  If i set the other pages to “Full width, no sidebar”, then they appear the same size as the front page, but i frankly don’t like how that looks. It’s kind of ugly and overwhelming.

  How can i make the front page display at the correct width?

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

  Hi Judy,

  The homepage is intentionally designed to be about 300px wider on Dara. Changing this behavior would require Custom CSS which becomes available when upgrading the site to WordPress.com Business or Premium.

  If you decide to upgrade and you’d help with the code, just make a post over in the CSS Customization forum, and we’ll be glad to assist you there:

  Alternatively, with the upgrade you’d have access to live chat, so you could ask there if you preferred.

  Well that’s disappointing.
