Description
### Description
Hey there, me and my company recently launched a new news-website using the buyad Smart-Mag theme (on Wordpress). The theme is amp-compatible and comes with the proprietary buyad amp-plugin pre-installed, the amp pages it produces look amazing, save for the fact that the page has a terrible overflow issue. Me (the SEO of the company) and our programmer are at a loss as to how to fix this issue, we've tried deleting the code-line that causes the problem, but it comes back after saving, I've installed the official amp-plugin, the AMP for WP plug in, I've tried editing the css through WP itself, editing the amp.css file, but NOTHING. The issue still stands... What else is there to do? it's important for us to implement amp to our sites, but so far everything either looks terrible, breaks the site or just produces un-solvable bugs left and right...
Here's an example of the issue, i've marked the problematic line as well.

Research direction
Start with the AMP reproduction URL and inspect the rendered page in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, focusing on the overflow line shown in the screenshot. Review how the buyad Smart-Mag theme and its proprietary AMP plugin generate the page and CSS; done means the AMP page no longer has the reported overflow without breaking its layout.
