Super useful info! Thank you
Topic summary
Goal: widen Dawn theme pages (requested 70%). Initial attempts to edit page.liquid didn’t affect width; screenshots showed the page remained narrow.
Key detail: For Dawn, the relevant template for standard pages is often main-page.liquid (not page.liquid). Editing the correct file resolved the issue for several users.
Approach: Dawn uses predefined CSS utility classes in Liquid (Shopify’s templating language) such as “page-width–narrow” and “page-width–wide”. To widen pages, replace “page-width–narrow” with “page-width–wide” across relevant templates.
Affected files (examples):
- Sections > main-page.liquid
- Sections > page.liquid
- Sections > main-article.liquid (multiple lines)
Version note: A later Dawn version reportedly lacks main-page.liquid; the user found an alternative file and solved it (details not shared). Suggest searching theme files for occurrences of “page-width–narrow”.
Options: No confirmed “medium” width; likely controlled by the theme’s grid/utility classes rather than custom percentages like exactly 70%.
Status: Partially resolved. Users achieved wider pages by editing the correct templates and class names. Images/screenshots were used to illustrate the narrow width issue.
