    Hello,

    I’m trying to make the two bars equal in width. I found this old thread:

    https://wordpress.org/support/topic/content-width-fix?replies=7

    I went to Appearance-? Editor and then pasted in the following code in the stylesheet but it does not seem to have an effect.

    .col-3cm .main-inner { padding-left: 260px; background-position: -80px 0; }
    .col-3cm .s1 { margin-left: -260px; }
    .s1 { width: 260px; }
    @media only screen and (min-width: 479px) and (max-width: 960px) {
    .s1-expand .s1 { width: 260px; }
    .s1-expand .s1 .sidebar-content,
    .s1-expand .s1 .post-nav { min-width: 260px; }
    }

    This is my website: themoneyhabit.org

    Thank you!

    Hi tmh12. A couple of notes, just my personal opinions:

    1. That code is two years old. There have been many changes in the theme since then. I don’t know if the code you posted is still valid, and there may be additional code in the current version.

    2. I have never been a proponent of modifying the basic theme structure. The theme is designed around fixed-width sidebars. It uses background images and negative margin offsets to achieve its layout. If it was easy to change the widths then there would have been a theme option to allow the user to do so.

    3. If changing the sidebar widths is at the top of your “must have” list then, personally, I’d recommend looking for a different theme. Or, you could hire someone to help you modify Hueman. Here are a couple of places you might find someone:
