Yeah, all the modules but stats are turned off. I wonder if it is worth the whole plugin just for stats…

Thank you. Super stuff.

I think Blocksy is a very splendid theme indeed, I don’t really understand why it isn’t possible to have a single setting to make pages/posts/post lists all one width. I’d have thought many would like the homepage wide and the rest of the content a single different width. Or perhaps it’s just me! I realise the general customizer Maximum Site Width changes the whole site as one but then you can’t have the homepage different. I have had to add a plugin to force the sidebar to the side of the screen too as the narrow width would push the sidebar with it, which would then force the opposite side right to the edge. Even with the wide width I can’t force the standard sidebar to stick to the edge of the screen.

Anyway, just saying.

Ok, thanks. It’s just a cosmetic thing. I’ll work out how to implement it on the child theme.

Ah ok.
Well, the only reason I asked on the Blocksy theme is due to the fact that it works fine by adding to the main blocksy functions.php but not the blocksy child theme. The actual adding of tags and categories to the title comes from the WordPress core I think. I didn’t understand why Blocksy didn’t like me adding to the child functions.php.

Works a treat:

.ct-container {
max-width: var(–theme-narrow-container-max-width);
}

Now tags/categories/pages/posts all use narrow width ?? just the homepage is wide

Thanks for your help

I was wondering though, is it not possible to pull the “narrow” CSS and apply it to ct-container? Be a better way to make sure they all match across the site?

Thank you, I was fiddling with ct-container, thanks for confirming I was on the right track.

Cheers!

Sorry, I didn’t write the above properly. What was trying to figure out is what CSS would affect it. Been playing around with the containers but in the end I was unable to move the margins on just the post list pages. Messing about with CSS is no problem at all. My Blocksy is running on a child theme. Cheers.

I searched is forum and found out I needed “boxed layout”

Ah, thank you for this info. Very useful. The plugin disabling Rest Api for non-logged in is great.

Hi, thanks for the info.

My stats plugin “WP Statistics” asked me to add “Disallow: /wp-json” to my robots.txt

Brilliant, that is perfect. Thanks for the code.
I’m not sure why the thumbnail blog style doesn’t allow different meta elements?
Still, that’s me done with the customisation of my site, happy with that.

Ok, so I find that if I have it in Thumbnails the meta options are not there. No worries. I think I’ll go ahead and modify the child theme. All I really want to show on the blog entries page meta is the edit date and the tags. I’ll do some tinkering under the hood as in the reply to my original question above.

Hi, I have realised that stuff isn’t showing in customizer.
For example, no meta elements show in:
WP Dashboard > Appearance > Customizer > Blog > Blog Entries
https://i.postimg.cc/8PkVw0CS/Blogentries.jpg

I have noticed this happening in other parts of the customizer. Like typography of the meta for single post. I’ve been changing the CSS in custom CSS to change the look of that.

I have another site running OceanWP and the meta elements show in the blog entries customizer.
