    Hi there,

    Enjoying the platform and the Author Pro theme, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make full width sections like you see on the home page of the demo here:

    https://demo.studiopress.com/author/

    Take the "Behind Iceland Eats" section - how would I add that to my home page? I've looked through layouts, that doesn't seem to be it. I have both Genesis Blocks plugins installed. I can't seem to figure out how to do it.

    Author Pro hasn't been updated to utilize the full features of the Gutenberg block editor. You'll need to add that to your theme. But Robin Cornett has a plugin that might get you where you need to be.

    Ok - do you know if there are plans to include those full features soon? I've been surprised for what I paid for this theme how rigid it seems to be.

    I'll have a look at that plugin. Thank you!

    No, I don't have a clue. You should inquire with StudioPress. They may be able to tell you if it will be updated.

    @tdellaringa if you contact StudioPress support they will help you set the full width as it is in the demo 🙂

    Really? I asked one other question of them via ticket and they basically said if you need help with your theme, ask in the community or hire a developer.

    Is there some other way than submitting a ticket? Happy to try again, but it seemed like theme support was off the table.

    Sorry to hear that. Would mind emailing me with the email you used for your StudioPress account? My first name dot last name at wpengine dot com will get to me 🙂
