• My client’s site has two pages with sidebars, the About page and the Home page. Here is the url of the site:
    https://pennyrosenwasser.com

    Seemingly out of the blue, both sidebars dropped below the page content today, and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this.

    I find no errors common to both pages; there IS a ul-div error in the sidebar of the About page, but the W3C Validator does not find this problem in the Home page sidebar.

    This morning i did change these two styles while making some changes on the Resources page:

    .caption {
    	font-size: smaller;
    	font-style: italic;
    }
    
    /*note that you prob can't assign a width to an inline element, so this is a div*/
    div.caption-400w {
    	font-size: smaller;
    	font-style: italic;
    	width: 400px;
    }

    But I made no changes directly to the Home and About pages today.

    I am going up in flames and will immensely appreciate help with this. (You might save my life.)

    Thanks in advance,
    Susan

    Also, this is a custom theme, totally from scratch.

    what is the intended width of the main content area? it seems to be 100% width which would push the aside/sidebar to the bottom.
    what is the intended with of the aside area?
    can you clarify what you set up in the theme before you noticed this issue?

    contentiskey — THANK YOU for drawing my attention to the maincontent style!! Because of that, i found the problem and fixed it. . When I was working on the caption styles this morning I inadvertently deleted the word “width” in the maincontent style definition so that it read: `#maincontent {
    float: left;
    padding-left: 5em;
    padding-right: 1.25em;
    padding-bottom: 2em;
    : 39.375em;
    } `
    SO when I went to gather info about the maincontent width per your suggestion, I found this absurd problem.

    THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!!!!!!!! Have a wonderful day and life. ??
