Hi Michael and Andrew,
First, thank you both for your help and patience. I see that the code is now working. I thought something was wrong because after changing it when I viewed my website in 2 different browsers outside of chrome nothing changed but now all is well (I use chrome, opera, and vivaldi at the same time on a regular basis). I’ll also remember to empty my internet cache when trying new code. As always I appreciate your help; people like you two make WordPress a non-scary software for a newbie like me.

Andrew thank you for correcting my newbie mistake. I have placed the code in the correct spot and updated the file but it still refuses to display the full width of the page.

Hello Michael,
Thank you for your answers. I have tried using both but unfortunately it didn’t change anything. I am a newbie so I may have done something wrong. Here’s where I added the css to:

Andrew very good points indeed. I use the save as option within my school’s logged in website since we work in groups etc., I never even thought about those using it for unintended purposes but I know it happens. Great food for thought, thanx!

Andrew you are awesome! Thank you a thousand times (-it doesn’t take much to make me happy). Also, I have removed the protection. In the past I found my content on other websites. So if you can imagine, I wasn’t happy about that which is what led me to the copyright protection. In your opinion, is there a better way to protect my content?

Hi Andrew,
Actually, I don’t need the page title on the left hand side since I have the menu tabs above this location. So I would be fine with getting rid of it.
