 * Hi there,
 * Could you provide a link to your site?

 * Hi,
 * My website is currently in maintenance mode. There is a website of a colleague(
   [http://pozorosich.com/](http://pozorosich.com/)) that uses the same theme (Confit).
   My question is how to increase the width of the vertical sidebar containing the
   menu, the personal photo and the widget.
 * Thanks

 * You can use this CSS to widen the vertical sidebar:
 *     ```
       @media screen and (min-width: 964px) {
   
       /*Widen the sidebar areas*/
           #masthead, #secondary, #page:before {
               width: 400px;
           }
       /*Move the main content area to the right*/
           #main {
               margin-left: 20rem;
           }
       /*Move the footer to the right*/
           .site-footer {
               margin-left: 47%;
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * The change is limited to browser widths of 964 pixels or more. It doesn’t change
   the overall width of the site from what Confit already declares. This means that
   the content area will be narrower so that everything still fits on the page with
   the wider sidebar, but feel free to further customize it to your liking.

 * When you use that code, don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes
   will be overwritten every time the theme is updated.
 * An easy way to add custom CSS is to use [the CSS editor](https://codex.wordpress.org/CSS#Custom_CSS_in_WordPress)
   included in the Customizer as of WordPress 4.7. Head to **Appearance > Customize
   > Additional CSS** to add your custom CSS.
