    For some reason this comment isn’t working right, I don’t see it in the thread, I’m going to try again:

    “Now I just need to figure out how to either make it full width. 3.) How can I make the locale page full width (at least within the box) and the footer fullwidth. The footer is not fullwidth on the CPT listing page either. All the other pages have a proper layout and fullwidth footer.

    At GD – Design – Listing you can adjust the width in percentages of the different sections of the page.”

    Before that I said “It may not look like much, but here’s what I have thus far for the lcoation page: https://veganlinked.com/locale/united-states/north-carolina/charlotte/

    I have already changed “home”, “listing”, “search”, “detail” to not have a right section and tried 100% content, 93%, etc… Following what I have done, I have created a page called “locale” to replace “location”. I changed the permalink to use “local”. This way I could design the layout of the search/location lists. I am hoping to do that with the CPT/Category/listings results pages as well if that is possible. But I assume I have to go about it a different way for those pages because they are not in the permalink section for me to redirect to a newly created page.

    So, having said all that, maybe the content isn’t stretching because the permalink change didn’t apply to the “GD Design” “Search Page Layout Settings”???

    For mobile, it does not work with your theme, as it is designed to open to the right on mobile. There is a rule you can add to hide it on mobile:

    media only screen and (max-width: 1024px)
    #et-mobile-navigation #et-extra-mobile-menu>li:last-child a {
    display: none !important;
    }

    I tried this in CSS and header script and it did not appear to work/hide it. I looked on my phone too, same result. I think it even added a big space at the top.

    When I inspected the locale page, it seemed that all the widgets are located in the left column, so you might try that.

    4.) how can I get rid of that big space at the top?

    That is coming from your theme, the rule below, so it would need to be customized with CSS.

    #main-content {
    padding-top: 40px;
    }

    Thanks so much, that did it, I just assumed it was a GD thing because I use this theme in other sites and it didn’t appear to be as big of a gap there… With your help I now can control that 🙂 I just realized that I could have simply right clicked the page and selected inspect and found that. Thanks for your patience, time, and professionalism!!! 🙂

    So I might try what?

    And, I am not using widgets for that page. I simply created a new page. Then I designed it using Divi Builder.

    If you’re referring to the CSS you offered to hide the location switcher in the menu in mobile view, it is in GD/Design/Scripts (see attached). I tried it in the header too because it didn’t work in CSS and it didn’t look like CSS I’m familiar with (I’m not code savvy 🙂 )

    This did not hide the location switcher in mobile view. So, I am removing the CSS from the site.

    For the location switcher to work in all device ports (tablet, mobile, computer), would it be better to use the GD menu instead of the Elegant Themes Extra Theme menu?

    If so, and if the GD menu can look like the menu I have now with the logo nice on the left and stylized with the same colors I’ll just do that.

    I would just need to figure out, maybe you can tell me, how to disable the Elegant Themes menu and enable the GD navigation menu, and add my logo to the left and set up the navigation.

    When I inspected the locale page, it seemed that all the widgets are located in the left column, so you might try that.

    I just tried going back to the original “location” page by changing it back in the “permalinks” and then I added widgets “popular post view” to the “GD Home content section”. In list view the listing still does not go all away across as it should. So, I increased the “post content excerpt character count” to make it spread further and still no luck. The design settings appear correct. So, it seems to be something more than what I created using Divi builder when I made the locale page.

    I’m going to set the permalink back to the locale page. Please login and see if you can figure out what’s up.

    Hello,

    the location switcher does not work with all themes in all ports.

    This CSS is also from Extra, just with an added rule to hide the menu on Mobile. It will only engage on viewports under 1024

    
    
    
    @media only screen and (max-width: 1024px) {#et-mobile-navigation #et-extra-mobile-menu>li:last-child a  { display: none !important;}}
    

    Seems to work for me, but, that is probably because I cleared the cache.

    There are a number of issues we have seen over the years with GoDaddy. We recommend you choose a different host, and that you disable their cache solution.

    Choose a known good cache plugin instead, and always disable your cache before you work on design or submit a design related ticket.

    I think our posts crossed there.

    I went back and read yours, but, I am not clear on what you are asking for.
