 * Hi
 * I am currently new to wordpress and trying to implement my new design. I got 
   the basics up but have a big problem with the sidebar.
 * You can look at my theme here: [http://www.xdreams.ch/wordpress](http://www.xdreams.ch/wordpress)
 * The sidebar should align with the welcome message on the top of the page. Any
   suggestions? Missing a clear somewhere?
 * Also if you click on about (PAGE) the whole content gets messed up – did I missed
   some files to adjust?
 * Thanks for some hints – and keep up the work 🙂

 * Change your `#sidebar` to :
    `#sidebar { width: 200px; float: right; margin: 
   0 0 4px 0; }
 * When I look at yor About page issue, viewing the css it appears there are css
   id’s and class’s being called that aren’t defined (narrowcolumn). You’ll want
   to verify all css selector names match between your index/header/single.php (
   etc.) and your style.css.

 * Thanks for your time. I tried that with the sidebar but it didn’t helped. I can
   get it move upwards beneath the firefox image. The sidebar always appears beside
   the content instead of being aligned with the welcome message.
 * As for the thing with the content on the other pages. I deleted the unneeded 
   classes but didn’t helped either. Will go first with the sidebar alignment, thanks.

 * It’s inside the wrong div for that. It’s parent doesn’t go that high…

 * You mean the sidebar is in the wrong div? Hmm don’t know how to fix that since
   the sidebar got their own php site. But thanks anyways, will try some things 
   out 🙂
