Ex2 theme customizer: Container
A container is an area within which the content is displayed. Generally, the container contains the entire page.
Both the content area and the sidebar are part of the container. The content area is called the primary container, while the sidebar is called the secondary container.
You can apply container layouts for the entire website via the Appearance > Customization > Global > Container section of your Wordpress dashboard.
Different container settings can be applied to certain pages or articles using meta settings. These are page-specific settings that have a higher priority than global customization settings.
The Wordpress Ex2-Theme theme allows you to customize three distinct elements of your website containers.
The Ex2 theme offers you five layout options for your containers. You can see an overview of the various models before choosing the one you prefer. Note that the premium version Ex2-Theme Pro gives you access to additional options. The five available models are:
Box - Everything
Text box- Content only
Full width / spaced
Full width / stretched
Narrow width
The content is displayed according to the width (in pixel) defined here. You can play with the width in combination with the container layout to create different designs.
A newly added narrow container width slide is available in Astra version 4.0.0 specifically for the narrow-width container layout, called the “narrow container width”. This will adjust the narrow width of the container for single blog posts, Blog Archives & Pages.
The narrow container width defines the width of content in articles and pages. By default, the narrow width container value will be 750px. However, you can choose any width between 400px and 1000px.
