 * Hi there,
 * I love the Pinboard theme! It is one of the best out there… But there is a problem
   that I would love to have some help with. I want to have a sidebar on the left,
   the content in the middle and a sidebar to the right. Two sidebars! Today it 
   is only possible to have the sidebar on left side or the right side.
    Will it
   come in the next update or can I put it in, the css editor or is there a plugin
   that can fix this?
 * Thanks in advance!
 * /J

 * Do you have a child theme set up?

 * I have a CSS Stylesheet Editor.
    And below it says: /* Welcome to Custom CSS!
 * CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a kind of code that tells the browser how
    to
   render a web page. You may delete these comments and get started with your customizations.
 * By default, your stylesheet will be loaded after the theme stylesheets,
    which
   means that your rules can take precedence and override the theme CSS rules. Just
   write here what you want to change, you don’t need to copy all your theme’s stylesheet
   content. */

 * You’d know if you have a child theme – you have to make one –

 * You can’t do this in CSS – and it’s fairly involved so you’ll have to get into
   some coding. If that’s not for you, you may want to look for a theme that has
   this option already.

 * No, you can’t make this change using CSS.

 * Ok!
 * I found a child theme creator plug-in.
    That is called: Orbisius Child Theme 
   Creator 1.0.3

 * Yep, that should work, but creating the sidebars is not simple – see:

 * Now I have fixed a child theme! 🙂
    What should I do now? 🙂
