Hello there,

I would like to make the content area of my site much wider than what ja_magz offer (similar to purity ii).
Currently it is set to 980px and I would like to make it 1180px.

@media (min-width: 1200px)
.container{
width: 980px;
}

It is indeed possible to change this in css. But that change alone is not going to do the job as the content inside the container does not middle align. What other changes are needed when the width of the container is increased,

Thanks,

Vinod

Hi Vinod,

JA Magz Template uses LESS to define all parameter style on your site. If you change width via css files, I’m not sure it can work properly.

Please follow my workaround below:
Note: Please backup all css files on your site first because css files will be overridden with modification defined from LESS file.

Open the templates/ja_magz/less/variables.less file:

Find and change

T3gridWidth: 940px; // T3 add. For non-responsive layout.
To

T3gridWidth: 1160px; // T3 add. For non-responsive layout.

Once done, click Compile LESS to CSS button from admin template, see screenshot for reference:

Hello there,

Unfortunately this did not fix my problem. The width of the container is still set to 980px.

@media (min-width: 1200px)
.container, .navbar-static-top .container, .navbar-fixed-top .container, .navbar-fixed-bottom .container {
width: 980px;
}

Hello there,

I actually changed the template to JA Appolio to make use of BS3. So now there is no need for container size changes. Anyways thanks for the response.
