catrina 103 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 The footer should be full-width no matter what, so that can be left alone. Have you already changed your Site Design Mode to Full-Width Design With Canvas (Settings > Design Control)? Please read the docs before posting. Please do not private message me unless I ask you to.

jgbr 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 I have but ive been messing with all three options to try and replicate this. The footer is not the problem, its having the seperate header full width and two side areas as static background. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catrina 103 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 Does your background have an image that you want static? Please read the docs before posting. Please do not private message me unless I ask you to. Designer | Catrina Dulay Founder | Catrina and Mouse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgbr 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 no just a colour, but obviously that colour needs to be either side of the content area. the content area is just white. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catrina 103 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 You can set the background color in Design Control > Basic Layout Colors > Body Background Color As for the full-width header, CSS can be used to make it full-width. What's your current site design mode? Please read the docs before posting. Please do not private message me unless I ask you to.

kastelic 6 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 What I sometimes do to acheive this is to place an empty div in your site somewhere at the very top. (you can use a hook to do this). Make this div position:absolute, width:100%, and the height of your header. Then you can give it a background color or repeating texture. Might have to play with z-index to get it to sit behind your header.

jasonfoo 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 Try setting it to "full-width design framework" as I have my site similarly set up to how you want it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgbr 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 That does not allow for full width header colour, different margin and content area colours tho? so just the same problem from a different angle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
