 * Hello all! 🙂
    I am new to WordPress, and web development overall. However, I
   do understand basic PHP/CSS/HTML syntax being a programmer of many other languages.
 * I just got myself a site and theme, and have been working with configuring it
   to my liking. I currently have it configured to only display the sidebar on the
   main page, and not on any other page. However, I would like for the text to wrap
   much wider on the pages without the sidebar than the main page, as there is much
   more room.
 * Here’s my main page:
    [http://aidancbrady.com](http://aidancbrady.com)
 * Notice how the text stops immediately before it reaches the sidebar.
 * Content page:
    [http://aidancbrady.com/contact/](http://aidancbrady.com/contact/)
 * There is no sidebar there, so I’d like for the text to extend a bit further to
   the right.
 * I looked into the stylesheet, and I noticed that if I modified the margins in
   the “.content” section of the file I could get it to wrap further. However, this
   also made the text be wider on the main page, which it shouldn’t.
 * Here’s a quick screenshot of the code I was editing:
    [http://puu.sh/66YGW.png](http://puu.sh/66YGW.png)
 * I changed the width settings to 100%, which was perfect, but it also extended
   the text on the main page like I said. I’m sure there’s an easy way to do this,
   but I have absolutely no idea what to do! Any help?

 * Adding brackets to your topic (now removed) doesn’t put it there where the developer
   will see it :)!.
