The KB Main Page is generated using the KB shortcode. The width of the KB Main Page can be adjusted, as explained below.

Settings
For more information on basic settings click here.
This setting is located in the Search Box section.
b) KB Categories Width
The KB category container displays articles and their categories.
It has a fixed maximum width of 1080px, which will not be exceeded regardless of theme settings or the number of category columns in the KB. However, the container will shrink on smaller screens.
You can override this with custom code. See our article click here for the custom code.
Troubleshooting
A common question :
“My KB Search box won’t go full width even though its set that way and other elements on the page do go full width.”
The solution above generally applies to other page builders as well. If the full-width option isn't working, check that the width settings of your page builder sections are also set to full width.
If you need further assistance, please contact your theme or page builder support for guidance on adjusting the full-width settings.
Block Themes Width Adjustments
If the width of your knowledge base isn’t taking up the whole page or isn’t as wide as you’d like, and you’re using a block theme, it’s the theme that’s deciding how wide the page should be. Your knowledge base can’t be wider than what the theme allows. The theme controls how wide your entire website appears. This section will guide you through adjusting some width settings for your pages, enabling you to expand the overall space for your knowledge base to make it wider.
In this part of the article, we present two solutions:
Solution 1: Modify the page template specifically for the knowledge base page. This is a good choice if you only want to change one page and not all the others. However, you’ll need to make additional adjustments to the template. This involves adding headers, footers, and any other missing elements to the template. In essence, you’ll be creating the template anew. Click here
Solution 2: Adjust the page template for the entire website, ensuring a consistent width for all pages. This is an easier change to make, but it will affect the entire site in terms of appearance. Click here
