Hi Ron it’s Jenny again,
Just wondered, how can I set the left+right margins to be a bit wider on posts and pages.
The default margins are not wide enough for my needs.
Obviously, I am talking about the white space (you may call it padding) that “wrap” the text in posts and pages, not the general margins of the entire theme…
Thx,
Jenny

You can add this code on either the Custom CSS or a child theme style.css
You can use either of the two code samples:

This adds padding to the content only. I’m guessing this is what you’re after.
```
.single-view .entry-content {
    padding: 0 20px;
}
```
This adds padding to the content including the title on top and the comments underneath.
```
.single #content, .page #content {
    padding: 0 20px;
}
```
Modify the numbers to suit your needs.
0 represents top and bottom padding.
20px represents the left and right padding.
