    Hello everyone!

    I'm using WordPress with the Genesis Author Pro theme, but I suppose my question could apply to other themes.

    I'd like my front page content to be full-width, so literally extending from the left side to the right side of the screen, with no "margins". However, with Author Pro, you have this "box" that encompasses the front page content no matter what.

    Now I've solved this so far by using the Genesis Dambuster plugin. I check "Full width page" and "Enable Dambuster on the front page" and that works like a charm. Yet it seems that Dambuster is no longer maintained, so I worry this may be a security risk or a source of issues down the line.

    My question is this: does anyone know how to modify the php/CSS of the Author Pro theme to achieve the same front page full-width effect without needing a plugin?

    If you could publish your step-by-step guide for doing so, I'd be very grateful 🙂
