Try adding these lines to the end of style.css:
.sidebars #wrapper, .content-wide #wrapper {
width: 1170px;
}
.sidebars #primary, .sidebars #secondary,
.content-wide-sidebar #primary {
width: 300px;
}
vtxyzzy thanks a lot for the reply. I placed it at the very end, after everything. Unfortunately, there was no change 🙁 I do appreciate your help however!
That is strange. When I tested it, it worked fine. Did you clear your browser cache, and any WP cache you are using?
Yea I tried clearing everything out… It has no effect on the appearance
Can you post a link to your site so I can see the css?
Sure thing, http://www.afrodjmac.com
Here is the style.css text with out anything altered:
[CSS moderated as per the Forum Rules. Please just post a link to your site.]
Please don’t post more than 10 or so lines of code here – per forum rules.
Try adding these lines to framework.css:
.sidebar #wrapper, .content-wide #wrapper {
width: 1170px;
}
.sidebar #primary, .sidebars #secondary,
.content-wide-sidebar #primary {
width: 300px;
}
Im sorry about the lines of code.
That did the trick! The site wound up extremely wide, but I simply just changed the width from 1170px to 900px and it looks exactly how I was hoping!! I really appreciate your help on this matter. This forum has been really great and I thank you for all your efforts!
I tried those codes, but doesn’t seem to work for the updated version now 🙁
Hi all.
I followed the above advice from @vtxyzzy and it made my site extremely wide, too. Like @afro9891, I changed 1700px to 900px but it made my sidebar disappear.
How can I make my green background a bit wider on each side and shrink the width of my content in the white space without losing the sidebar?

Thanks!
