width of what?  the forum?  we use the width given to us by your wp theme…  they set the page width…  does your wp theme have a full width page template?

do you have link to site so we can look?

it currently doesnt have a fullwidth page just a “default” and it uses just a universal #container id and when i try to change the width % it doesnt seem to do anything.

looking at your page, I am unsure what you want to do…

your wp theme has a fixed width of 1170px…  you forum is occupying that entire volume…

are you saying you dont want it full width?  that you only want to take up 80% of the width that the forum is given by the wp page template??  with extra white space on each side???

If so, you will need to customize your sp theme to do that….  pretty simple…  in the sp theme you are using, in the mail css file for it, find the declaration for #spMainContainer

add these two definitions:

width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;

and you should be good…

if you mean something else, please explain further…
