 * like your theme…a lot.
    sadly, i don’t like the way the sidebar works though.
   is there any way to revert to a regular sidebar? if you know what i mean. no 
   scroll bars. no minimizing. just a static, simple, space that can contain midgets?
   you’ve done a fine job with the this. appreciate your hard work.

 * There is an option in the Sidebar Options in the customizer that allows you to
   keep the sidebar open at all times.

 * Sorry you don’t love the design. I know the sidebar is unique, but it is designed
   to feel more like an app than a website. It feels right at home on an iPad or
   smartphone, but I do realize that desktop websites tend to not have this type
   of sidebar design.
