Text not staying within grid. ***Solved***

Hi all! I have a site I'm working on that is nearly done except for the odd behavior of some text in a grid cell. When I preview the page the text (which is the title for a slideshow) flies off to the side, and overlays the slideshow a bit. The links to the slide-shows are on the home page, they're FontAwesome icons for Road-work, Subdivisions, Marine and Municipal. Municipal acts correctly, the text stays above the extension, in it's grid, even when I resize the window. The other three have the problem that the text doesn't stay in the grid at all. I have looked and can't figure out what is different about the Municipal page that it is the only one that works correctly. Here is a link to the site.

To recreate the problem click on the FontAwesome icons in the middle of the homepage and resize the window, sometimes I don't even need to resize, the text is just in the wrong place to begin with.

Thanks for any help you may provide, I really need to wrap this one up and move on!

To be able to help you, I need the project file (wbs). I cannot see what you have done based on the published files.
I do not need the complete project, only one page and the objects that are relevant to your question.

The home page has FontAwesome icons, they are links to slide shows depicting the type of work. Once clicked the page with the slideshow opens, The title above the grid with the slideshow doesn't respect the grid. It flies off to the left and superimposes the slideshow. "Municipal" is the only one that works right, the others all have the problem of the title not staying in it's grid.

I assume you are referring to Text1 on the Road-Work page, for example?
The text is not part of the grid it is behind the grid, so therefor it is not flexible.
Make sure you drag & drop the text object inside the grid.

You can verify this in the Object Manager.

Thank you so much Pablo! Indeed Object manager should have clued me in! Not sure how I placed the text behind the grid in the first place,I'll try to remember to study it more closely when trying to fix an issue.
Have a great day!
