   Hi Ryan,

   Just had a quick look at your site using Firebug (FireFox add-in), and it looks like a few of the div tags above the <div id="wrapper> are stretching across the full width of the page, and knocking the sidebar down.

   See the screenshot here.

   You can see the exact boundary of your sidebar by adding a style command to your sidebar div tag like so:

   <div id="wrapper style="border:1px red solid;">

   Just make sure to remove this line later on when you have solved the problem. Hope that helps.

   Best wishes,

   David

   Hi David,

   Thanks so much for your help. I'm not exactly sure where I should be putting that sidebar div tag. Does it go in the header.php?

   Sorry, like I said I'm new to this. All I really want to do is just move the sidebar up to where the page information is.

   Thanks again for your help.

   Ryan

   Hi Ryan,

   You can edit your sidebar div tag that I mentioned, by going to Appearance => Editor, and editing your themes sidebar.php file. Then, when you have the border style on you will be able to see the boundary of your sidebar more clearly.

   Best wishes,

   David
