 * Manov2k, did you ever manage to get an answer for this? I am having the same 
   problem.
 * Thanks

 * No, I have stopped using this theme.
 * Customizr is not easily customizable even for advanced WP users like me

 * It’s not so much Customizr, but responsive themes based on the twitter bootstrap,
   which work on percentages not pixels. Digging into the code would allow you to
   change Customizr’s use of the bootstrap grid which would give you a choice of
   2/3 + 1/3; 3/4 + 1/4; 5/6 + 1/6; or 11/12 + 1/12.
 * But dealing in pixels is not the right way to go with a responsive theme. A sidebar
   of 350px is already bigger than an iPhone screen, for example, and would force
   horizontal scrolling.

 * Thank you both for the replies.
 * ElectricFeet, I understand the situation with the percentages but I guess my 
   knowledge is just not good enough to actually make the changes.
 * My big problem is I can’t seem to adjust the width of the site. I either need
   to make the whole site more narrow to accommodate a smaller slider or I need 
   to move the slider to the left and add a sidebar with a calendar widget to the
   right.

 * I feel like an idiot! I was obviously not thinking straight late last night. 
   I just completely disabled the slider from the default homepage and added it 
   to my custom homepage with a sidebar. Still don’t know how to make the site more
   narrow but this solution works for now.

 * [@tasha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tasha/) how you moved the sidebar
   to the top, it always shows after the slider and feature pages

 * Sorry for my very late reply! What you need to do – is:
 * Move this code in your custom template:
    do_action( ‘__fp_block’ ); to just above
   the footer call, so just before: get_footer();
 * Hope that helps.

 * I apologize for stepping in on this thread but I’m trying to find the same solution…
   extending the sidebar to the top of the page. Is there a way to do this by modifying
   the Custom CSS (without having to disable the default homepage and create a new
   one?)

 * Not as far as I know but if you start a new thread (I think this one is marked
   as resolved so they won’t look at it) someone with more experience might be able
   to help.
