Defaults for Layout and Design

[hivehouse]

What is the default settings on a clean implementation of Pro for the screen width and site width (%) and content width (%)?

Do you have a good definition of each of those parameters?

thanks much

Hello Chris,

Thanks for writing in!

• Screen Width: This is also the same as your browser width.

• Site Width is the total percentage width of your browser width. The remaining percentage will be divided into two which will serve the left and right margin. You must also need to set the Maximum site width because the site width is usually equal to the maximum site width.

For example:

Screen width: 1920px
Site Width: 88%
Maximum width: 1200px

Your site width will have 88% of the screen width or equal to the maximum site width if the screen width is greater than the the maximum width. But since you have set the maximum width of 1200 pixels, your site width will now be equal to the maximum site width.

• Content Width is the percentage width of the content out of the maximum site width. The sidebar width will be the difference between the site width and the content width.

For example:

Maximum width: 1200px
Site Layout: Sidebar Left, Content Right (or Content Left, Sidebar Right)
Content width: 70%

The content width is 70% of 1200 pixels and the sidebar will be at least 30%.

Hope this helps.

Excellent explanation.

For Pro theme, on a new installation, what are the default values it uses?

Hi @wbgTHEMECO,

It may vary if you import a demo, but the default is 1200 for max width and 88% for site width, then 72% for content width.

Thanks!
