Make sidebar wider in Blaskan theme?

Try adding these lines to the end of style.css:

.sidebars #wrapper, .content-wide #wrapper {
    width: 1170px;
}
.sidebars #primary, .sidebars #secondary,
 .content-wide-sidebar #primary {
    width: 300px;
}

vtxyzzy thanks a lot for the reply. I placed it at the very end, after everything. Unfortunately, there was no change ?? I do appreciate your help however!

That is strange. When I tested it, it worked fine. Did you clear your browser cache, and any WP cache you are using?

Yea I tried clearing everything out… It has no effect on the appearance

Can you post a link to your site so I can see the css?

Sure thing, https://www.afrodjmac.com

Here is the style.css text with out anything altered:

Please don’t post more than 10 or so lines of code here – per forum rules.

Try adding these lines to framework.css:

.sidebar #wrapper, .content-wide #wrapper {
    width: 1170px;
}
.sidebar #primary, .sidebars #secondary,
 .content-wide-sidebar #primary {
    width: 300px;
}

Im sorry about the lines of code.
That did the trick! The site wound up extremely wide, but I simply just changed the width from 1170px to 900px and it looks exactly how I was hoping!! I really appreciate your help on this matter. This forum has been really great and I thank you for all your efforts!

I tried those codes, but doesn’t seem to work for the updated version now ??

Hi all.

I followed the above advice from @vtxyzzy and it made my site extremely wide, too. Like @afro9891, I changed 1700px to 900px but it made my sidebar disappear.

How can I make my green background a bit wider on each side and shrink the width of my content in the white space without losing the sidebar?
