    Hi all, I am looking to change the layout for the business pro theme. Currently, I have the layout as content and sidebar, however, this is taking up almost the entire screen, see here https://imgur.com/a/GuVc5vD. I am looking to make it something similar to this https://imgur.com/a/13AQORC where the content area is smaller with room on either side. Any ideas on how to change this would be greatly appreciated!

    This is normally controlled using CSS which you can find in your child themes style.css file.

    If you increase the size of the sidebar by a certain percentage or pixel amount, you should decrease the width of the content area by the same.

    Hi Brad, thanks for the reply! I tried playing around with the code a bit but still could not get it to work. Thanks
