Hi

Grid module is a responsive module so the size of the boxes depends from the area it can cover. Try make more space for module and boxes will get bigger.

Hi

I'm afraid I do not know the template You are using so I really cannot tell if there is an option in template settings to resize. But I'm also not familiar with this grid module, so it may act dfferently than our in (M)social template.

Hi

Than You will find an option to set the width of pages in template settings. It only works to some point, for bigger You can add this to override.css:

Code: Select all
.gkPage {
    max-width: 1290px !important;
}

Hi

I think only by reducing the number of columns in grid, so other will take their place and resize.

OK - I have a good Solution. :D

We can maximize the size of GridGK widith up to 1390px so only the Grids will get Bigger and the Rest will stay in MSocial. BUT FOR that i need to know how to reduce the collumns without getting always 6 Boxes in one line. (Because GK5 is set up to 1x1: always 6)

NOW we schould reduce the GK5 Grid by setting down that one Box jumps out. From 6 1x1 Boxes to 5 1x1 Boxes.

THANK U

Hi

I'm not sure if resizing only one module position will be possible. You wl have to resize whole page width.

I've talked to programmers about a posibility to reduce number of columns and this will require a lot of module hacking, so I'm afraid this will not be easy. I think best option will be to simply use a different module since this one was designed for a specific purpose with 6 columns as default. But You may try adding only 5 boxes to it and than next 5 in another copy of Grid module. This will reduce the number of columns, but may not work as great on smaler screens.
