<p>Hello Jamie, </p> <p> </p> <p>I am trying to customize my widget pages via masterpage, and its only working partly.</p> <p>I have a Masterpage which consists of header, some content-div &amp; footer.</p> <p>It works flawlessly on Content Pages, but on Widget Pages Liferay adds an extra div around the header, an extra div around the content &amp; an extra div around the footer. Styles like &quot;width: 100%&quot; become pointless and the whole layout does not work.</p> <p> <img alt="" src="/documents/d/guest/source-png?imagePreview=1"> <br>  </p> <p>Is this a bug? Are widget pages supposed to work with master pages &amp; liferay will fix this?</p> <p> </p> <p>Best regards</p> <p>Adrian</p>

<p>Hi Jamie,</p> <p>Thanks for the response. You are correct, in that it works fine in 7.4.</p> <p>And, yes, there are some issues with 7.3,</p> <p>Thanks &amp; Regards</p>

<p>It is possible to use Master page templates with Widget pages.  I seem to recall it had some issues in 7.3 and I seem to remember the issue you are referring to.  It works much better in 7.4 and https://liferay.dev/blogs is doing just that.</p>

<p>Hello,</p> <p>In version 7.3,  I created a widget page to test if any of the master templates can used and all I keep getting is a blank widget page without any of the master templates elements (header, footer and navigation).</p> <p>So as per my question, Can Widget Pages use Master Templates?</p> <p>Thanks &amp; Regards<br /> Said</p>
