    Hi Gopu

    You can fix/change this with some custom CSS. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    body.responsive .site-header .container {
        max-width: 95%;
    }
    

    You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.

    Hi, I Work Here

    Glad to hear you’ve made progress. Assuming I can see the screens correctly, you’re after a thumbnail slider, is that correct? We don’t currently have a thumbnail slider widget in the SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle. If possible, please, could you upload the screenshot to Dropbox or Drive so I can get a clearer picture? Or send me a link to the plugin’s page on wordpress.org. Thanks.

    Thank you for the reply andrew. Now about the screenshot that i have attached,in that we can see a light background with texts and a vertical dark strip at the begining of the image(please ignore the content in that image,i only wanted the layout to be like this thats y i attched directly how i saw.) i want to create a layout similar to this ,so that important texts can be given that way to attract audience. I tried arranging an image widget with dark strip like image and adjacent to that a siteorigin text widget but i was not able to get a result like in the screenshot. ( in wordpress admin page under pluin we can see somewhat same layout to those plugins that are activated and have updates a blue strip at the begining of plugin bar and a red strip those have updates.some messages like wordpress update that comes in top of page have a yellow strip and some text in it).

    Hi, I Work Here

    You could try making this yourself. If you have SiteOrigin CSS installed or another CSS plugin, go to Appearance > Custom CSS and insert:

    .custom-text-box {
        background: #cccccc;
        border-left: 3px solid #333333;
        padding: 20px;
    }

    Then, insert a Text widget into Page Builder and edit it, click the Attributes field in the right column and enter a widget class as follows:

    custom-text-box

    You can change the values in Custom CSS, this is just an example.

    thank you Andrew for the help. I did not use css editor (i think,using the code in the css editor will apply to the whole site when ever we make a custom text box.is that right ? ) .instead of that i entered the custom css in the custom style field in attribute tab and class code in widget class. i got the result i wanted.

    Andrew, is it possible to add such a feature in header menu so that when we click a menu there is a horizontal solid line just below the menu selected and also another color solid line as hover effect when mouse is moved in other menu items ?

    Hi, I Work Here

    Super, glad to hear you’ve made progress.

    Unfortunately, at the moment we don’t have the capacity to assist with the adding custom styles for the menu. Sorry, wish I had more to offer in this regard.

    thank you for the reply Andrew. menu customization needs lots of work is that the reason? so i hope north’s menu can also be customized right.

    i think the issue is already been addressed before thats why i did not open a new thread i am stuck with this.

    i created two rows and gave background color in both of them; to remove the space (white space) between the
    two rows i entered the value 0 in bottom margin field in layout and hence the white space is removed

    in the first row i added two editor widgets and gave background colour in both of them but there is space in between
    i couldnt find any option to change the space between them in layout

    Hi, I Work Here

    That’s right. We do our best to help with small CSS customizations. Unfortunately, tweaking the main menu hover colors and the way that’s handled with sub-menus etc. is more than we’re able to offer on the forums at the moment. We frequently use http://upwork.com/ or https://codeable.io/ if you ever need extra help.

    I think the issue may lie in the gutter setting for the row found at Row StylesLayoutGutter: Amount of space between columns. Default is 30px. Have you perhaps tried setting that field to 0?

    Hi, I Work Here

    If the above doesn’t help, please, send a link so I can check the layout and assist further. Thanks.

    thank you Andrew for the reply :) . two editor widgets are at same column one just below the other and there is only a option called padding in layout .i tried by changing that value to 0 but did not work. my site is only under construction on local machine and will be publishing soon. so as of now i think i shall wait till its ready .
