   Tell me, is it possible to increase the width of the entry (post blog), for example by narrowing the column on the left (info).
   Thank you.

   Hi,

   You can edit the post formats template on "includes" folder. They are the following.

   format-standard.php
   format-gallery.php
   format-quote.php
   format-link.php

   Try to edit format-standard.php and find this code

   div class="three units alpha blog-meta meta-color">

   Replace it with

   div class="two units alpha blog-meta meta-color">

   Notice that we change three to two.

   Hi Ismael,

   I tried this, it changed the column size but the text width remained the same. How do we change that?

   Thanks Joe

   Hey Joe,

   Just one more step for each of the post formats after shrinking the first column you'll need to increase the size of the actual content container. So after all the blog meta code you should see:
   <div class="six units entry-content">

   Change the six to a seven or eight depending on how you changes the blog meta container (combined they should equal nine).

   Thanks Devin,

   That worked but I also added custom CSS as follows to justify the title margin:

   #top .offset-by-three {
   padding-left: 160px;
   }

   original padding left was 240px. It works but is there a more simple way of doing this?

   Hey Joe,

   In the same files you've been working on just look for:
   <h1 class='post-title offset-by-three'>

   Change it to offset-by-two or offset-by-one and that way you aren't modifying the grid but working with it :)
