Title: Sidebar dropping below posts Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Sidebar dropping below posts * [Annie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annie/) * (@annie) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/) * I am currently using the 3 column wpandreas09 theme with no problems. The trouble is, if I change to any of the other themes I’ve installed, even default, my sidebar suddenly disappears below my posts. I am viewing it in Firefox. Hopefully someone can give me some idea why this is happening. It’s driving me nuts. I like the theme I’m using, but there are so many new ones that I want to try, and I’m not keen on a one column theme. Thanks very much.

As it is we can’t see the problem. * In the meantime, a guess. The photo in the protected entry is too big? * Thread Starter [Annie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annie/) * (@annie) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387885) * Hi Podz. I tried removing the photo but it doesn’t seem to have made any difference. I’ve tried a few other themes and the sidebar is still dropped. I’ve even tried deleting the wpandreas09 theme to see if that helped, but no go. Please help! * Thread Starter [Annie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annie/) * (@annie) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387911) * I’ve even tried disabling widgets and all the plugins except Akismet, but I still can’t get the sidebar to where it should be. * Thread Starter [Annie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annie/) * (@annie) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387913) * I don’t know what I did but it seems to be ok now. Thanks. * [kldtech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kldtech/) * (@kldtech) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387926) * This is the same problem I am having. but nothing I do is effecting it. I don’t have any plugins active. * [Jonathan Landrum](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jonlandrum/) * (@jonlandrum) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387927) * kldtech, it may be a problem in the CSS. Is your theme home-made, or did you download it? Also, a link would help. * [jennavery42](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jennavery42/) * (@jennavery42) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387928) * When my sidebar has dropped in the past it’s been because I had it one of the dimensions (for the sidebar or main column) set too wide in the CSS. * [kldtech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kldtech/) * (@kldtech) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387929) * My apologies, jon, the theme is downloaded, Kickass spooky blue. this is a link to see what’s happening [http://mjallaire.netfirms.com/nfblog/](http://mjallaire.netfirms.com/nfblog/) thank you * [Jonathan Landrum](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jonlandrum/) * (@jonlandrum) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387932) * It looks like the problem is in the main div. Try assigning a fixed width to it, maybe around 450 pixels. * [kldtech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kldtech/) * (@kldtech) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-387933) * Thanks I’ll try that! * [Rok](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rok/) * (@rok) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-388082) * Another important casue of Sidebar drops under post is **un-closed** “tags or codes” within the Posts. * [kldtech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kldtech/) * (@kldtech) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-388084) * I just checked that too… all closed. UGH! * [Rok](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rok/) * (@rok) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-388086) * kldtech, * Just check your few previous Posts by running seperately i.e. goto dashboard / manage/post and right click View to open Posts in New Tab and see which Post is making the Sidebar drop. * Once you find the Post, either delete or correct the Post and things will work normally. * [kldtech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kldtech/) * (@kldtech) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-388090) * hmmm there’s only the one post… Let me try something and see what happens * [kldtech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kldtech/) * (@kldtech) * [20 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-dropping-below-posts/#post-388093) * I don’t know what the problem is. I deleted the post. retyped the whole thing in and it still pushes the sidebar down.
