 * HI, I know this has been covered before but i’ve got myself confused on how to
   fix it.
    This is my first WordPress site and i am struggling to get the widgets
   to take up the full space in the content/sidebar half template. Please see links
   below:

 * As you’ll see there is blank space to the right on these pages in the right column.
   
   From looking at existing threads people mention adding this code somewhere:
 * #sidebar .twocol {
    width:100%; }
 * Will this fix my problem? If so where do i actually paste it into? Any help would
   be very much appreciated.

 * No it won’t. Which sidebar are you putting the widget in?

 * Hi Paul,
 * i installed the plug-in ‘simple page sidebars’ and used it to create new sidebars
   for the specific pages so i can have different widgets for each page. Incase 
   it matters the page attributes section i have ‘no parent’ and ‘default template
   selected’

 * Excellent! i removed and then reinstalled ‘simple page sidebars’ but this time
   set the default sidebar for it to use to the ‘top sidebar’ inside of ‘right sidebar’.
   The nextgen gallery widget now takes the full width of the sidebar and looks 
   spot on.
 * However, the widget now appears on the bottom of my landing page as well (www.
   adsdesignandprint.co.uk). Any ideas on how to stop it appearing on the landing
   page?
 * Thank you for your help so far.

 * I am not sure what you want. Do you not want a sidebar on your landing page or
   do you not want just that particular widget on your sidebar on the landing page
   or something else entirely?
 * Also please tell me if you have a static landing page or a post landing page.
   Meaning is your landing page have posts on it or is it a page you created?

 * Sorry my mistake, i left a widget in another sidebar by accident.
    All is working
   fine now, thanks so much for your help its been very appreciated.
