    Hello,
    Though I am very familiar with WordPress & already developped dozens of websites with the platform, I am a newcomer to Genesis framework.
    Could someone explain me how to change .content & .sidebar width without breaking the responsive functionnality ?
    I am currently using the default Genesis child theme.
    Best regards,
    Antoine

    You can modify it, just make sure you modify the same area down in the responsive design/media queries section of the CSS. What I do it... look at the code I want to change, then look for it in the media section so I'll know how to change that code.


    Need help with customization or troubleshooting? Reach out to me.

    Thank you anitac. I have indeed override media queries in a custom CSS file, and it works pretty well. Need to learn and tweak a little further to make it kinda pixel perfect.

    One of the things you will need to do is instead of use width: you may need to use max-width: instead.
