Adjusting sidebar width in Twenty Eleven

  • I post this question again because the previous one had a title in dutch.

    My problem is I want to increase the width of my sidebar on the right side to show two columns of ads using the adrotate plugin.

    I managed to increase the width of the sidebar and decrease the width of the part where the posts are with this code.

    #primary {
float: left;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: -26.4%;
margin-top: 0;
width: 90%;
}

#secondary {
float: right;
margin-right: 12.6%;
width: 44.8%;
}

    The sidebar should now be big enough to display two columns with ads, but it only shows one. I guess there is a setting I missed but I just can’t figure out which one.

    Could one of you guru’s pleas help me out with this last obstacle? TIA.

    Oh, I forget. This is my site.

    this might work:

    #secondary {
float: right;
margin-right: 7.6%;
width: 25.8%!important;
}

    only tested in firefox with web developer add-on, on the front page

    the only thing I have to do now is to find a fix for the mailchimp plugin, it doesn’t work wel with a biger sidebar.
