Maximize Post Width in Blogger Dynamic View

Before
After

Back to Dynamic View, yeah~.. So, a forum user asked me how to maximize the pop-up post pages in Blogger's dynamic view. Let's make this snappy.. Here's how.

Go to Dashboard --> Template --> Customize --> Advanced --> Add CSS --> paste the following code --> Press enter after the last character of the last line } --> Apply to Blog.
.overview-wrap{
max-width: 2000px !important;
}
 
.viewitem-panel .viewitem-content, .classic li.item, .article, .ss {
max-width: 1750px !important;
}

  1. Good trick.
    Is there a similar CSS code to make it with the PAGES?

  2. I can't even get that pop-screan to appear with my blog. Blogger says the Lightbox won't work with Dynamic View.

    1. I don't think lightbox works with Dynamic View, but you aren't using Dynamic View template, so it should work in your blog. Let's sort this out in the forum.

    2. can i do that with other adver services?

    3. Well, you'd need a way to insert HTML code to the template. At the moment, there isn't a way to do that yet. Unless you wanna place ads in every single post, one by one (Paste your ad's code in HTMl view when you're composing a post.)

  4. Hi there,

    I am currently creating a new blog using this new dynamic view interface, I followed up your instruction in how to remove certain views, and I ended up choosing just the snapshot view for my blog. I've changed the background colour to black but I cant seem to change the background colour of this pop-screen. Any tips how to do it? wanted to change teh default white to dark-grey

    1. Actually I do! Here:

      #sidebar{
      width: 250px !important;
      }
      #content{
      margin-left: 250px;
      }

      The two values must agree to each other. Feel free to play with them.

    1. Hi Vera,

      Find the following in your template (under 'Add CSS'):

      .viewitem-panel .viewitem-inner {top: 120px;padding-bottom: 120px !important;}

      And change it to:

      .viewitem-panel .viewitem-inner {top: 120px;padding-bottom: 140px !important;}

      That should take care of it. Cheers!

  7. Master. Thank you for your blog, I've been very helpful. A few days ago I wrote under the alias "rural" and I'm very happy. Today I want to ask help for my poetry blog. When I choose the classic view, I would not see the gray border that demarcates the pages and poems, but rather a continuous and uniform white. I think it's some kind of brutal minimalism:)

    And I also want to know if I can change the gray background of the entries in the view "Flipcard".

    My blog is: http://zonadelcrepusculo.blogspot.com/

    Thank you very much for your help, God will give you long life.

    1. Hi Soren,

      Here, add this to your css. This will remove the borders in Classic view:

      li.item {
      border: 0px !important;
      }

      As for the flipcard view, here's how you can change your card's color from grey to white:

      .items .item .card .front{
      background-color: white !important;
      }

      Cheers!

    1. Hi Shane,

      I'd assume it can be done - but not automatically though. You're gonna need to edit your post - click on your image - and choose 'original size' as its size. It goes without saying that you need to use a Hi-res picture for this to work.

      Cheers!

  19. In a previous question you helped someone (VERA) view the whole content of their PAGES in dynamic views by creating a bigger buffer at the bottom. I use Firefox and tried your edit to CSS, but it did not work - given different browser. Can you please help me out with some code? THANK YOU!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hi Georgina,

      Sorry for the late reply. The tweak given to Vera should work on your blog as well, but I can see why it's not working. Somehow, all your code in your 'Add CSS' box is repeating itself. Have you noticed this? You've changed the numbers in one of the code, but it got over-ridden by the repeating codes (you've changed the value to 140px, but the repeating code says 120px). You need to remove all but one set of code. I strongly recommend you to use a different browser because usually the repeating code is caused by your current browser.

      Delete
    2. Just a little follow up. The header code has been updated to fit the current release. The new code in the tutorial page here is the updated one:

      http://www.southernspeakers.net/2011/10/add-header-in-blogger-dynamic-view.html

      But you should take care of the repeating sets of code first before updating your code.

    3. thank you! that's interesting about the repeating code. I will fix it and then give them both a go now... BTW which browser do you recommend?

    4. I love Firefox coz due to the customisation options available in it. Then again, some add-ons could clash with web services..

      In your case, I'd recommend a clean version (without any add-ons) of either Firefox or Chrome.

      All the best! :)

  20. Dear Yoga,

    I chose the Flipcard mode as my template.
    I would like to re-size the dimensions of the post (namely, shrink it). Along with the line of Ramy's suggestion I tried this code:

    .overview-wrap{
    max-height: 1000px !important;
    }
    .overview-wrap{
    max-height: 95% !important;
    }
    .overview-wrap{
    max-width: 1000px !important;
    }
    .overview-wrap{
    max-width: 60% !important;
    }

    The problem is that this kills the margins, and make the round corners square...

    Is there a way to fix these matters?

    In addition: when a post is opened:

    - Is it possible to put a thin colored frame around the post?
    - Is it possible to eliminate the cards at the background and remove the shade? (so the background is like in the classic mode)

    Thank you!
    Ofer.

    1. Hi Ofer,

      You've published another comment regarding your flipcards, just wondering if you still need help with this query?

      For your additional queries,

      1) To add a thin colored frame around your post, add the following code to your 'Add CSS' box:

      .overview-wrap{
      border: 1px solid yellow !important;
      }

      2) There is a way but it isn't feasible. But feel free to give it a whirl. Edit all your posts (one at a time) - switch to HTML view (as opposed to Compose view) - Paste the following towards the end of your post:

      <style>
      .flipcard #content{
      display: none !important;
      }
      </style>

      Cheers :)

    1. Hi Rick,

      The code in the post above should do what you're after - to maximize the width of your post-pages. If perhaps you were referring to the main magazine view's page, the following code should widen your view:

      .magazine #content, .magazine #content .item, .magazine .story{
      width: auto !important;
      }

      Cheers :)

  23. This works great, thanks!

    I was wondering, can we do the same for pictures? I mean instead of choosing 'original size' for pictures (which I've noticed would move out of the post width on some monitors but would work fine on some) can we have a default width which is always set to fit the full width of posts?

    Let me know if you need example screenshots.

      Unfortunately, the same can't be done for images. Page width can be easily set using CSS. But image resolution isn't as easy as that. I'm afraid we're gonna have to use the post editor to alter the image size if we want the best image quality in Blogger.

    1. Hi Bob!

      I'm glad they've finally managed to get fixed as well, although it bothers me how long the bug was there before it got fixed..

      Anyways, try this for the timeslide view:

      .timeslide .slice, .ss{
      width: auto !important;
      }
      .timeslide .large, .timeslide .medium, .timeslide .small, .ss{
      max-width: 400px !important;
      min-width: 300px !important;
      width: auto !important;
      }

      I've set the column size to 400px in the code above, as the auto function isn't exactly kicking in. Now, this might not be a good thing. There are three columns in Timeslide, which means the viewer's screen must at least be able to accommodation 1200px.. Otherwise, the last column will appear below the second column.. It might be a good idea to change 400px to 350px or so, since the default blog width for most users is 1000px..

      Happy 2013 Bob! :)

  27. Hi Yoga!

    Firstly, thank you so much for all the help you give us! Your posts are amazing.

    Secondly, I have a problem. I use the magazine view, with a maximum width of 775 px. The photos I put up that's vertical has the perfect size, but whenever I have a horizontal photo, the text doesn't fit, and gets moved down to under the photo, and it all looks pretty ugly.

    I'd like to be able to have horizontal photos, but still have the blog width to about 775 px. Is it possible to have a maximum width for the photos I put up on my blog? Or do you know another solution, like making the text box width smaller?

    It would be amazing if you could help me!

      The code made the text line up better under the photo, but what I'm trying to do is to give the pictures a maximum width, so that the text can fit to the right of the picture (as the standard is for when the picture is vertical).

      Though, if that's not possible, it sure looks much better with the piece of code you gave me! Thank you!

    Here is my blog: http://www.onesummerdayphoto.com/search

    I hate all the unutilized empty space on both sides of the page, for the main posts page in magazine view as well as the static pages.

    I would like to either add sticky image sidebars to both sides for all the pages

    OR

    Increase the width of all the pages to fill more of the screen. I used the codes you suggested for this particular option, and it did increase the width of the post page for magazine view, but then the thumbnails and texts snippets stay at the same size and position. So the result is that instead of lots of empty space outside the page, there is lots of empty space inside the page. (Hope I am doing a good job explaining the problem)

    Basically, I just want a solution that allows me have the least amount of empty space throughout my blog.

    Thanks in advance :)

  31. Also, I followed your tutorial to insert a custom image header into my blog. I am wondering if instead of a .png file, I can use a flash object as my header in the same manner...?
    Your advice would be much appreciated!

    1. Hi 1SD,

      You can use the following code to extend your layout over:

      #content{
      max-width: 3000px !important;
      width: auto !important;
      }

      But you're just extending the layout to fill the gap. The inner elements are still bound to fixed sizes. I wouldn't recommend changing these sizes, because the current set of sizes has been optimized for all display. Altering these values will only make your contents truncated in smaller devices. And nope there isn't a way to place a new element there (image, ad, etc).

      As for the header, I haven't tried using a flash object before - but feel free to give it a try.

      Cheers :)

  32. Hi there,

    Is there a way to adjust the width for the magazine layout in dynamic view. Not the actual width of each post page, but the width of the main page where it lists all the posts. I'd like to expand the width so you see a bit less of the background.

    Thanks :-)

    1. Hi Avishek,

      I've tried changing the size of the cards in Flipcard and Mosaic, and it seems like there isn't a feasible to do it that would still allow the template to dynamically adapt to it - not without breaking your template of course.

    1. Hi Catherine,

      This should do. Go to Template Designer - Advanced - Add CSS - paste the following code - Press enter after the last character of the last line } - Apply to Blog.

      .entry-content .separator a{
      padding-left: 0px !important;
      margin-left: 0px !important;
      }
      .entry-content img{
      padding-left: 0px !important;
      margin-left: 0px !important;
      }
      .entry-content{
      width: 700px !important;
      display: block !important;
      margin: auto !important;
      }

      Yeap, it's customised for your blog..

  37. Thank you Yoga for the code but I got some problem. I use flipcard and the code works well on chrome but it doesn't load properly on FF, i.e the post's width extend but the content's width does not. I have to refresh it for the code to work. Every time I start the computer I have to refresh the page for all the settings to work again. I've already adjusted the time-out code to 1000. This is kind of annoying cause I got mostly pictures on my blog (comic books actually) and every post I have to tell people to use ctrl + or refresh the page to enlarge the images. Do you have any solution? Please help!!!

  38. Ok i really don't know what happened or how to fix it. I've recently added your css for changing the comment bubble color in dynamic views. Didn't do anything else.
    But for some reason now my post width has changed to 144px instead of the previous 750px. I cant find it in my template and have tried adjusting the width with the "customize"option but... nothing. I'm really bad at code so what to do???
    I've left the faulty post in so you can see for yourself.

  40. Ok I'm soooo sorry cause it kinda appears like I'm spamming you... Sorry! I'm just lost and figuring things out as i go. I found the glitch. When I add labels to my post the post size seems to change to 144px. Without labels, the post size stays 750px. Now that i know the problem, think you still feel like helping me...?

  41. Yoga.

    I'd like to do exactly the opposite from the title of this tutorial. I'd like REDUCE post width in the 'magazine' dynamic view. Here's my blog. http://pablomajluf.blogspot.mx/
    When you click on a post, the pop-up text is too wide. I'd like to reduce it by 30 to 40%. In other words, each line now contains between 18 to 20 words. I'd like to make that between 12 and 15. Is it possible? Also, if it's possible, I'd like to make the pop-up box more narrow as well.

    Thank you very much dude. Cheers from Mexico.

    1. Hi Pablo,

      Try playing around with the value in the code above. That's as close as we can get.

  42. Hi there! Is there a way to stop the posts from showing up in a pop-up altogether? I rather them be in the full page layout (such as the pages show up).

    1. I'm afraid not - this behaviour is embedded within the core structural script itself. Consider using Sidebar or Classic views if you'd like to show your posts in full. Cheers!

  43. Hi Yoga,

    I know it's irrelevant question but I hope you'll help.

    I started a new blogger blog and applied a custom template, I want to Adjust the whole blog width but the problem is that the Width adjustment option is disable in my template. Can you please guide me how to manually set the width of my blog? or how to enable that option?

    1. Hello Irfan,

      Custom templates usually have fixed width - and this value is usually tied in with other elements in the template (which makes changing it a little bit difficult if we were not to break the template). Try contacting the maker of of this template.

  44. Hi Yoga,
    I'm using a layout with the post area on the left and single sidebar on right. I'm trying to figure out a way to widen the post area (or lessen the distance between the post and sidebar), so there's not so much wasted space between the post area and sidebar.
    Would you happen to know how to do this in either the "Simple" or "Picture Window" templates.
    Here's a link to the blog I'm trying it on:
    http://plumroselane-examples.blogspot.com/
    I'm not sure if these are Dynamic themes but I'm thinking they aren't so not sure if you can help or not but anything would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    1. Hello Sharon,

      Your template isn't a dynamic one, but I can still help. Add the following to your 'Add CSS' box. Feel free to adjust the value 105.

      .post{
      width: 105% !important;
      }

  45. Hello Yoga, many thanks for the excellent tips on this site!

    I am using Flipcard view and have maximised the post width with your code above.

    However on iPad and iPhone the post width is too narrow, and I am unable to increase the width.

    Is there a way to increase the width of Posts to the maximum on iPad and iPhone?

    Thanks in advance!
