I want to add a new class inside column main div. Right now my layout in frontend is like this:

<div class="columns">
    <div class="column main">
        <div="MYDIV">
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="sidebar sidebar-additional">
    </div>
</div>

this is my layout:

<layout xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_layout.xsd">
    <update handle="1column"/>
    <referenceContainer name="columns">
        <container name="div.sidebar.main" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="sidebar sidebar-main" after="main">
            <container name="sidebar.main" as="sidebar_main" label="Sidebar Main"/>
        </container>
        <container name="div.sidebar.additional" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="sidebar sidebar-additional" after="div.sidebar.main">
            <container name="sidebar.additional" as="sidebar_additional" label="Sidebar Additional"/>
        </container>
    </referenceContainer>
</layout>

Reset to default

You can try it:

your_theme_root/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceContainer name="columns">
            <container name="columns.main" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="column main" before="-" />
        </referenceContainer>
        <referenceContainer name="main" htmlClass="class-example" />
        <move element="main" destination="columns.main" />
    </body>
</page>

Replace class-example to your css class.

  • and what I post there is the 2columns-left layout

  • It is layout inside your theme, it extends standard 2columns-left layout. Sidebars remain on the same places.

You can try this.

Preferred way is to edit in theme's default.xml file. You may create or edit the default.xml file at path app/design/frontend/Vendor/theme/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml

If one wants to add container div under column div, should try this.

<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
        <body>
           <referenceContainer name="columns">
                <container name="container" label="" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="container" />
            </referenceContainer>        
           <move element="main" destination="container" before="-"/>
        </body>
</page>
