Larger container Width in templates

Design help General

Hi
i noticed that the max width of a container in a template i bought is 1296px, i was wondering how to achieve this,
I know i can add custom code but this does not effect the designer view, and i know i can use a div but i was wondering how the to create a class that changes the container width like in the template.
Does anyone know how to do this

cheers :slight_smile:

Hi @ericson,

Welcome to the Webflow forum.

If the template has a container width of 1296px, that means the creator of the template has made a custom container (using a div) and not used the webflow ‘container’ component.

Have a look at the class name they have given to the custom-made container (possible ‘my-container’, ‘custom-container’, or such like?)

Check the settings for that element/class. You are looking for the setting 1296px (probably in the ‘max-width’). Change that setting to whatever max-width you want. This will affect the change to all elements that use the class name.

Let me know if that makes sense.
Hope that helps.
