• I am creating a site for my information technology course and when logged into WP, my sidebar gets pushed to the bottom right. I want it to float on the right. The page is currently on my school’s server. When I copy the URL into IE or Firefox, the sidebar is floating where I want it. How do I get WP to respond correctly?

  • Not clear what you mean that it works okay in IE or Firefox but not WP? Are you not using a WP site? Without seeing the site, it’s hard to help with things like this. Make sure that your pages don’t have HTML or CSS errors that are causing that to happen. Also be sure that the width of the sidebar fits within the containing element.

    is the URL. If you look at it though, the sidebar will be where I want it to be. I am logged in as an admin now and the sidebar is pushed to the bottom of the screen.

    I’m not sure how technically competent you are, but I’ll just throw this out there:
    Within your Child Theme style.css file or Custom CSS plugin, enter this and see whether the problem persists;

    #sidebar {
     float: left;
     width: 260px;
     margin-left: 0;
    }
