Why do we need a full width container?
An ordinary container restricts the content within a fixed width, leaving empty space on both sides. However, a full width container expands the content to fill the entire width of the browser window. This can be particularly useful when designing modern and visually engaging websites.
Step 1: Create a new section
Firstly, open your Webflow project and navigate to the desired page where you want to create the full width container. Add a new section by clicking on the “+” icon in the navigator panel or by pressing “Ctrl + Shift + S” on your keyboard.
Step 2: Adjust section settings
In the section settings panel, set the width of your new section to “100%”. This ensures that it spans across the entire browser window.
Step 3: Add a div block
Within the newly created section, add a div block by either right-clicking and selecting “Add Div Block” or by using the “+” icon inside the section.
Step 4: Customize div block settings
With your div block selected, go to its settings panel. Here you can adjust various properties like height, background color, and positioning. To achieve a full width effect, set both left and right margins to “Auto”.
Step 5: Add content within the div block
Now that your full width container is ready, it’s time to add content! You can insert any desired elements such as text, images, or additional div blocks within the div block you created earlier.
Extra tips:
- If you want to center your content vertically within the full width container, you can set the top and bottom margins of the div block to “Auto” as well.
- Remember to adjust the font size and styling of your content using CSS properties or Webflow’s built-in options.
- You can also create multiple full width containers on a single page by repeating these steps.
