Theme: Twentyeleven Content left aligned

    I am working with the option ,,Content on left” and my problem is that there’s still a space between the content and the left side of the header.

    This is how my website looks like: https://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1vmz4&s=6
    This is how I want it to look like: https://i50.tinypic.com/91jdhi.png

    When I read through the style.css I can find this:
    /* Right Content */
    /* One column */
    but no headline that says LEFT content to be able to change anything there.

    (I can’t use the one column option, which brings my text on the left side but shrinks the header to half size…. whyever.. )

    I do not have a server, but you can download the files here, I hope that is ok!?

    I’m VERY thankful for every advice! ??

  • There are 2 things to understand.

    First, for Twentyeleven theme, page by default is no sidebar. To have a page with sidebar, you need to assign Sidebar Page Template to that page (and drag a widget or two into that sidebar)

    Second, the page without sidebar (default) aka full width page of 2011 doesn’t span full, its content is only 68.9% in width.

    So you will always have that side paddings left and right, even if you assign that page a sidebar template and drag a widget in, the left/right padding is still there, but less padding.

    Look at the theme’s demo.

    You can generally change the page margins or padding in the CSS – but doing so may cause unintended changes on other pages. It’s not really possible to offer specific CSS help without seeing the actual site, but you might try using a tool such as Firebug to work with the CSS. Do be aware that you should be making any changes in a Child Theme or via a custom CSS plugin such as jetpack.

    Thank you for the answers!

    How can I assign a Sidebar Page Template? I only chose Default Layout (Content on left= in the Theme Options and dragged a Widget in the Main Sidebar but nothing happens ??

    It would also be ok to choose a template with sidebar and drag anything in there because I have to do that anyway. But it would be more beautiful like I explained in the pictures above.

    @wpyogi
    I tried to find the page margins in the style.css (I used Firebug too), but that seems impossible to me. do you know where in the style.css I can change that?

    Thank you again!!!!!!
