Guenni007,
brilliant, that worked.
Your tip for removing the “u” was very helpful.
pretty sure that I would not have found that easliy.

THANKS!

OK found it, was my own mistake. In my editor (Coda) I changed the path to point at the style.css file in the theme folder. But for these changes to take effect, you will have to restart Coda, and then give the command “go to local folder”, otherwise Coda will open a previous opend style.css and you will still be editing the same file but in the wrong location.
Thanks and topic solved.

no, that’s it for now.
Thanks again

OK, found the culprit in grid.css:

.boxed#top, .html_boxed.html_header_sticky #header{ width: 1010px; }
.container{
/* max-width: 1010px;*/
}

I can easily change that to something like this:

.boxed#top, .html_boxed.html_header_sticky #header{ width: 100%;
max-width: 1500px;}
.container{
/* max-width: 1010px;*/
}

Still a bit strange that the settings you make in the Enfold settings do not override this.
