how do I change the width of the container?

Question

I have used Twitter Bootstrap to develop a website with the fixed container class, but now i wants the website to be 960px width and not 1170px. I don't use the .less files.

Is there a quick way to fix this?

If you do not want to compile it yourself, you can get a customized version from the official website with necessary parameters.

Add this after your bootstrap.css

.container
{
min-width: 960px !important;
max-width: 960px !important;
width: 960px !important;
}

Maybe not all are required, but just to be sure.

Create a custom fixed width container..

.container-fixed {
  margin: 0 auto;
  max-width: 960px;
}

And use this instead of .container. Here is a working demo on Bootply: http://bootply.com/71142

As Answered HERE - Its best to extend the bootstrap(.min).css rather than editing the file your self if you are using a CDN customizing the core css isn't an option.
