Sidebar question

  • I am content with using the Default Template, but is there a way to move the sidebar from the right side to the left side?

    Thanks in advance,

    Mike

  • You need to modify your style.css file. It’s located in wp-content/themes/default/. There are 3 values you need to change:

    #sidebar
    {
    padding: 20px 0 10px 0;
    margin-left: 30px;
    width: 190px;
    }

    and

    .narrowcolumn {
    float: right;
    padding: 0 45px 20px 20px;
    margin: 0px 0 0;
    width: 430px;
    }

    The “margin” settings are controlling the positioning. (Why they didn’t use float rather than margin is a mystery). I had to make an adjustment to the width of the narrowcolumn to make it fit, but it was probably because my window wasn’t too big. These settings look decent. HTH
