Thanks esmi, i have moved the sidebar back into the content area of page.php and you can now see how the text wraps around it.
Any ideas why this happens?

Hola Dave,
Do you know anyway of moving the sidebar closer to the text instead of increasing the size of the content??

Ademas, muchas gracias por tus respuestas

Gracias flamenco, i didnt see your post until now. I have got to the same point as you, reduce content width, float the content left.
Any ideas on why there is so much space between the content and sidebar?

There appeared tp be a missing </div> in the page.php file. I added this and the sidebar moved to the right. I then added “float:left” to the content as esmi recommended and this has brought the sidebar back to where i want it. Now, only one more step to go.

I’ve found that a </div> was missing from page.php. The sidebar is now on the right but still at the bottom of the page.

I’ve moved the sidebar out of the content in page.php. Now the sidebar is at the bottom of the page. Not sure if this is correct.
I have also tried to float the content by adding float: left; in style.css but it didn’t make any difference, the sidebar remained below.

Thanks for your post esmi, can you elaborate a little.
Where does the #content markup start and end? Is this the style.css or page.php file?

Almost there, i have added the sidebar to the correct position, however, if i have only one widget in the sidebar, the text wraps around it.

How can i ensure the text does not wrap around the sidebar?

Ok, i think the reason the sidebar is not showing is because the following code might be needed in page.php:
<div id=”sidebar”>
<?php if ( function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) && dynamic_sidebar(‘sidebar’) ) ; ?>

I’ve added this code to page.php file but the sidebar is showing near the footer of the page. How can i ensure the sidebar is displayed on the right side of the page, like the sidebar in the posts.

Found a way around it, just using a custom navigation menu will delete the original and therefore remove the default “Home”.

cheers guys but there are only 2 pages showing under my admin area, both published and no drafts.
The page/link “Home proper” and “about” are the only 2 pages and links that work so i think its only the text showing on the menu, just not sure where to find it.

Thanks t-p but “I’m using wpfolio”, it must be a simple method to remove the default Home tab in the nav menu, i just can’t find it and i’ve searched all through the parent and child theme.

ok, thanks steve. i will resolve this, i have some other issues with the theme, posted here . I actually have put these on your site here too as i wasnt getting any feedback from anyone on the forums.

I worked it out. Made a static home page, added the images and linked them to the posts. Fine.

Now, on the home page nav menu, it says “HOME” in caps but on other pages it says Home. Do you know why?
