 * Not sure if you’re still looking for a solution, but I added this code to successfully
   reduce the sidebar:
 * /* For Large Screen */
    #primary { width: 854px; } #secondary { width: 200px;}
   [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) screen and (max-width: 1224px){#
   primary { width: 754px; } #secondary { width: 200px; } } [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/)
   screen and (max-width: 1060px) { #primary { width: 630px; } #secondary { width:
   200px; } } [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) only screen and(
   min-device-width : 768px) and (max-device-width : 1024px) and (orientation : 
   landscape) { #primary { width: 590px; } #secondary { width: 200px; } } [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/)
   screen and (max-width: 960px) { #primary, #secondary { width: 100%; } }
