    Hello!

    I am using the theme Dara and every page on my site is an ideal width, however the blog part of the site (news: https://planetnontendo.wordpress.com/blog/) is a lot thinner and personally ruins the look of the website.

    Does anybody have any advice to make it have the same width as rest of site?

    Thank you.

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

    There are “Page Options” you can select when editing any page; here, the page labeled “Blog”. These include “Full-Width Template” and “Grid Page Template”.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi @switchplayersnorwich

    One thing to be aware of is that the blog layout is intended to have a sidebar on the right. Here on the demo site, you can see it has the latest images widget that has been added in that area.

    Unfortunately, the Page Options that @flyingdisc mentions above will not work to change the width, since the layout of this page is baked into the theme. Instead, you may wish to create a custom blog page by creating a blank page and then adding the “blog posts” block.

    We have a recent webinar here that walks you through the process of adding that block and setting up a custom blog page: https://youtu.be/owHhtlkVvTg?t=1213.

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
