 * I need help I am working on a semi-custom site build, I will admit I am completely
   out of my depth on this deal but I didn’t have a choice with the time constraints
   and clients limited budget… Again, I need help bad.
 * I have been working endlessly in customizing the home page on this site for a
   client of ours. I have the home page layout almost perfect but now that I have
   started adding content pages I have a serious layout problem on the content pages.
   I have no idea what to do to fix the problem, I hope that there is some sort 
   of line of code that I am missing.
 * I have used css to make most of the adjustments to this theme
 * This is the link for the home page (perfect)

 * Here is one of my content pages that is all messed up.

 * This is the link to the original theme if that helps.

 * I’ll give the admin info to someone who can help me or at least point me in the
   right direction.
 * Thank you

 * Generally I get a response from someone… even if its to tell me I’m an idiot.
   I really need the help on this, can anyone out there give me some advice?

 * Hi!
 * Dug through the source code of the problem page and found an HTML tag mismatch.
 * `<div id="Content-sidebar" class="secondary">`
    Was on line 654 (of the HTML,
   it’ll be a different spot in your template file).
 * It didn’t have a closing tag, so it was throwing off the whole page. Removing
   that line should make a huge difference.
 * When you look for it, find the second reference to that ID. There’s also another
   duplicate, empty `<div>` just below it named ‘`content-sidebar`‘. I don’t think
   that one is hurting anything, but it can probably also be removed.
 * Good luck! 🙂

 * CHAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 * THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! I found the line of code and added the closing tag and
   it worked. I’m pretty sure that you just saved me my job dude. If you’re ever
   in the Buffalo NY area let me know I owe you a steak and a beer!

 * Awesome! Glad it’s fixed 🙂
 * If you want to clean up the code a little more, you should be able to eliminate
   that `div` entirely, since it’s both empty, and a duplicate ID.
 * And I’ll definitely let you know next time I’m up near Buffalo 🙂
