Secondary Sidebar Blows Up Layout

    Hi, Alexander.

    Thank you for such a great, feature-filled theme. I’m having some trouble with it, though.

    The secondary sidebar is blowing out the layout. Its content just wrecks the layout any time I enable a secondary sidebar. See here: http://dev.iampariah.com/iampariah2014/about-pariah

    I have tried disabling all plugins, but the problem occurs then, too.

    This problem only manifests with a child-theme. Note that my child theme is EMPTY, just a screenshot.png and style.css, and the style.css only contains the following–not one line of any CSS yet.

    /*
Theme Name: PSB2014 (Child of Hueman)
Theme URI: http://iamPariah.com
Description: Child 01 theme for the Hueman theme
Author: <a href="http://alxmedia.se" title="Visit author homepage">Alexander Agnarson</a>
Author URI:
Template: hueman
Version: 2.0.6
*/

@import url('../hueman/style.css');

    This happens whether I activate the secondary sidebar on posts or pages via the global Theme Options or the individual Post/Page Options.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi!

    Weird things going on there for sidebar and footer. Hm, never seen any similar issue.

    1. Can you try downloading the sample child theme from the Help dropdown in theme options instead and run that?

    2. Try disabling all plugins or extra javascript that runs on the page. Does the theme work? If so, re-activate them one by one to locate the troublemaker.

    Thanks, Alexander.

    Using JUST your sample child theme, with no plugins, scripts, or custom templates, I get a different weird behavior. Check it out: http://dev.iampariah.com/iampariah2014/about-pariah

    The secondary sidebar moved back into place, but notice how it’s color is repeated on the left, outside the primary sidebar. That’s not a background image; that’s from the secondary sidebar.

    I think that is this background that is on the body, that shows up on a bright spot.

    Add

    #header { background: transparent; }

    And your full bg image should appear.

    Ah. Fixed! Thanks!

    Note that I had to add !important to the declaration in the child CSS.

    #header { background-color: transparent !important; }
