@Darsithis, I have a question that maybe you might be able to help with?

I have a website that I am working on for my business. The storefront uses a pre-built template, but unfortunately there isn't as much customization as I was hoping for. I like the free template I am using, but the carousel on the home page stretches in length to fill the width of whatever resolution you're using. It just dominates the page, and I would prefer it to be smaller.

I found a script that was supposed to help resize the carousel and has worked for others, but not for me. I don't have direct access to the code as far as I'm aware, but I can add scripts into the script manager.

Oooo, I did manage to access theme files.

I wish I could help but I don’t really know. I do all of my work from scratch

Best you could do is add a CSS class that limits width of the element and add the !important tag to force an override.

That actually sounds kinda like the script that someone suggested. Adjusting the percentage in the script is supposed to limit the width.

<style>
@media (min-width:801px) {
.heroCarousel {
width: 50%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
}
</style>

Did setting that to 50% help? It will only work if the screen is 801 pixels or wider, and the 50% only works if you have a width on the parent element.

It did not, I also messed with the pixel amount and percentage as well. I disabled the carousel for now until I can figure it out.

That should have worked, unless the images in the carousel are set to a specific width or the parent element has no width so there is no way to calculate 50%.

You could also try: width: calc(100% - 50%)

Gorgeous day for a bike ride, if a bit hot and humid. So many beefy dudes on the lakefront trail today

Had to walk all the way up to work today just to talk to personnel for like a minute. And then walk all the way back. Two miles each way, around 85F weather. Then someone had the nerve to call me on my way home (I didn't hear, my earbuds drown out noise, at least enough that I won't hear or notice my phone ringing), probably asking me to work. I was in the office, talking to the personnel manager, AND the store manager. Personnel manager knows my schedule was messed up this week because I told her. They knew I was off. Most of the people in that store know I travel on foot. Not going to wear myself out by taking a third trip. If it was something else, they could have left a message, and they didn't. Come on people. Instead, first day of NBA playoffs, just gonna ignore em.

[Darsithis]

I figure if they don't leave a message, it just must not be important enough. You have the day off, go enjoy it.
