left sidebar wider

Another Snippet

Hi…keep in mind I’m a wordpress semi-newbie!…

Is this the link I should be looking at? https://www.themesandco.com/snippet/creating-a-column-layout-in-customizr/

if so…where in my site would I find what is there now so I can ammend it to make the side bar a little wider and the main content a little smaller?

You currently have a span3 sidebar and span9 container.

Try changing, as long as total span = 12

where do I find the span 3 and 9? I’d like to try 4 and 8 or maybe even 5 and 7 but don’t know where to find that code.

As above, here’s the snippet

I don’t think you’re understanding my question. I don’t know how to access the code at all. I understand what to do once I get to the code…but what do I click on to get to the code where you saw that I have span widths of 3 and 9.

rdellconsulting understood your question, and in the link HE gave you there is the solution.
Just put that first snippet in your child-theme functions.php, and you will have the left sidebar width of 4 and the content of 8.

I don’t think you are grasping the vastness of my stupidity! I didn’t know WHERE to put it…and inadvertently you told me. In the child theme!

I should have been more clear as to just how clueless I am on this!

Thanks both of you.

Eheh, I vaguely thought the “where to put” was the problem, that’s why I specified that ??
