Wordpress Admin Post Edit Screen no left and right margin

Hello, for the past few months, I’ve noticed that my post edit screen has gone a bit berserk. I don’t remember when it began, but the left and right margin has gone, and I can’t for the life of my figure out how to get it back.

In some troubleshooting, I’ve determined that it’s not caused by any of my plugins, but it has something to do with my Pro child theme.

Here is why I arrived at that conclusion.

  1. Using the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin, I turned off all plugins and themes. The admin new post / edit post screen appeared as expected.
  2. Then, I turned on all plugins with the default Wordpress theme. The admin new post / edit post screen appeared as expected.
  3. Then, I changed to the Pro theme (not child). The admin new post / edit post screen appeared as expected.
  4. Then, I change to my Pro child theme. The admin new post / edit post screen broke again.
  5. Then, I turned off all plugins with the Pro child theme enabled. The admin new post / edit post screen was still broken.

If my logic is sound, my conclusion is that there is something wrong my Pro child theme install. I do have custom functions installed in my functions.php, but I’ve gone through them one by one commenting them out and testing, but it doesn’t change a thing. In fact, I’ve remove all custom functions from the file, and it still doesn’t fix the problem.

What also lends credence that this may be a bug is that it also does this on another install I have with a totally different setup, but it has Pro Child theme installed.

Is this a known issue?

Hello @bobbybosler,

Thanks for writing to us.

I would suggest you take a backup of your child’s theme. Now, you need to download a fresh copy of the child theme from here, install it, and recheck it again. Please note that we don’t provide customized child theme support. It is out of our support scope. I would suggest you please get in touch with the developer who can assist you with your corners or subscribe to One, where customization questions are answered.

Thanks for understanding
