    SOLVED How to have the homepage use the full width

    Posted 10 years 9 months ago
    • Hi

      I hope this is not a too silly question.
      For the MainBody position I use a 2 position layout, sa and mb. This is great for all of the website because the level 2 menus are displayed in sa. But it shifts the featured content to the right which isn't nice.
      Is there a way of having mb use the full width?

      Website is: www.hcm-m.ch . I am using Gantry 4.1.24 and the latest 2.5 Joomla version.

      Thanks a lot for your help

      Best regards
      Joao

    • Our templates are responsive and have a max width of 1200px normally (although some positions can go max width. You can change the width of the template - but you will need to do alot of testing if you do to ensure that everything still works.

      so, in reality the answer if probably not unless you are prepared to do the work.

      If you want to alter the Gantry responsive widths, please see this thread http://www.rockettheme.com/forum/joomla-template-fracture-solved-threads/182889-solved-maximum-width?start=0#901979

    • Hi Mark

      Thanks a lot. I believe my question is not very clear.

      Looking @ the code:
      div.rt-container -> the main container with 1200px wide
      and then class="rt-grid-9 rt-push-3" this means that the content of the div.rt-block starts slighty to the right.
      What I wanted is rt-grid-9 without the push 3 on the main page and then with push-3 on the rest of the website. Is this possible?

      Thanks

    • I'm still not clear what you are asking but let me try to explain. Those classes are there because of the layout of the mainbody set in template manager. If you have modules assigned in the sidebar it will occupy space. So, if you don't want the sidebar to appear on the other pages then simply unassign the modules in that page from the sidebar. If the sidebar is present because of other features injected into the sidebar from template manager (e.g. menu feature) then you can create a template override in template manager by ticking the MASTER copy of the template and pressing the "duplicate" button. Then, assign that copy to the page where you don't want those features and turn off those features in that template override.

    • Hi Mr. T

      Thanks a lot. You gave me the right tip with the module position. All I had to do was to disable the level two of the menu on the mainpage...

      Thanks a zillion

      Best Regards
