Increase spacing between product image and description

Topic summary

A user seeks to increase spacing between product images and descriptions on their Shopify store, while also narrowing the text section. They provided screenshots showing current versus desired layout.

Two solutions were offered:

  1. Moeed’s approach: Add custom CSS code to the theme.liquid file, placing it above the </body> tag in the code editor.

  2. DaisyVo’s approach: Use Shopify’s built-in Custom CSS feature through the theme customizer (Admin > Online Store > Customize > Theme Settings > Custom CSS).

Both solutions involve CSS modifications targeting product grid layout, adjusting width percentages and gap spacing. The CSS code controls the product description max-width and grid item spacing.

Status: The discussion remains open—the original poster has not confirmed which solution worked or whether the issue is resolved.

Hi @letsgetwasted

I hope you are well. You can follow our instructions below:

Step 1: Shopify admin > Online store > Customize: https://prnt.sc/XQ6IDB99kUCd
Step 2: From the left menu > Theme settings > Open Custom CSS: https://prnt.sc/iDxwa8zBQ4Z-
Step 3: Copy the code below and paste it there

Here is the code for Step 3:

@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
    body .product.grid {
       gap: 10% !important;
    }
body .product__info-wrapper.grid__item.scroll-trigger.animate--slide-in {
    width: 40% !important;
    }
}
.product__description {
    max-width: 44rem;
}

Please let me know if it works. Thank you!

Best,
