    I’m using Twenty Thirteen and want to get two widgets on the sidebar to display side by side.

    Using google I was told to use CSS to get this result. However I have been unable to do it.

    I did find the exact same thing for the twenty ten theme: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/side-by-side-widgets

    Their answer said to use:

    #text-2, #text-6 {float:left; width:50%;}
    #text-2 .widget-title, #text-6 .widget-title {min-height:65px; }

    I have found that the two widgets CSS tags are text-2 and rfb_widget-2.

    But could not get this to work.

    If anyone could provide some guidance that would be greatly appreciated.

    I was trying to use floats, but failed. Something like this http://www.welovecss.com/showthread.php?t=465

    it is not recommended to edit the default theme Twenty Thirteen directly; please strongly consider to create a child theme to make the customisations with.
    if you only plan to change the formatting, you could alternatively work with a custom CSS plugin.

    #text-2 seems to be gone from your site;

    generally, your attempted code should have worked.

    please post again with the reinstalled former #text-2 textwidget (which will likely get a new number);
    and don’t forget to clear the browser cache if you don’t see the changes immediately.

    Sorry I was playing with the code inside #text-2 items. It is now back on the site and now is #text-3.

    I will make sure all of the custom css changes are removed.

    the ‘twitter’ content of #text-3 is simply too wide to fit into half the width of the sidebar;

    please post in support section of the used plugin; or contact the plugin’s developer for support if the plugin is not from http://wordpress.org/plugins/

    Ah, make sense. Yeah the twitter code lets me play around with width and height parameters. But It doesn’t look too good.

    However I just have two issues.

    1) The footer gets overlapped.
    2) How do i make the footer height smaller?

    any ideas?

    Thanks.
