All things Shopify and commerce
Hi there, I am using the Refresh theme and I have blank space on the right and left on all pages. This occurs on my homepage, product pages, contact pages, etc. I have tried many solutions offered on discussion threads with no luck. Any help please! See pictures for reference.
Hi Macoburn
Have you tried checking how it looks on mobile? Probably it's not responsive on desktop but responsive on mobile.
Either ways, it's a responsiveness issue.
Hey @macoburn,
Hope you're doing well! In order to remove the blank spaces, or increase the page width across your store - Go to Online Store --> Themes --> Customize --> Theme Settings --> Layout, and set the page width to 1600px.
This should work 🙂
Cheers!

Hello @macoburn
How to Fix This:
1. Adjust Max Width of the Container
Try increasing the max width for your main container by adding this CSS at the bottom of base.css or theme.css:
@media screen and (min-width: 1024px) {
.page-width {
max-width: 100% !important;
width: 100% !important;
padding-left: 0 !important;
padding-right: 0 !important;
}
}
If your theme uses a different container class, replace .page-width with the correct class (check in Shopify's theme code or inspect it in the browser).
2. Make the Sections Full Width
If a specific section (like a banner or collection) is not taking full width, force it:
@media screen and (min-width: 1024px) {
.shopify-section {
width: 100vw !important;
max-width: 100% !important;
}
}
3. Check Theme Settings
. Go to Online Store > Themes > Customize
. Check if there's a Container Width or Layout Width setting.
. Increase it to Full Width if available.
Thank you 😊
