I am not 100% sure what layout you are referring to. Do you mean the layout in your custom CONTENT? X3 includes the Foundation grid, so you can include any columns grid html in your content section.

Hello Karl,

In a Wordpress template, you usually have the choice between a boxed layout or a wide layout. Is it possible to get the X3 so. I have 2 pictures as an example.

Greetings Marc

X3 doesn't really work like this. In X3 you can already set the width of all modules context, folders and gallery, either globally or on a per-page basis. This should be most modern and flexible, because often you want wide galleries but text limited width, like this.

Therefore, the only difference that this WP theme does, is create a "grey" background, making the design look "boxed". I tried to add some custom CSS, and the "boxed" background style itself is not hard to achieve [screenshot], but there will be problems with fixed topbar and other special features [screenshot].

Since custom widths is already a feature in X3, we wish do not wish to complicate the design with boxed-background appearance, which doesn't provide any added functionality other than cosmetic.
