 * Hi,
    I’m using the craft cart theme and the upgraded WP e-commerce pluggin.
 * How do you increase the height of the sidebar? Seems to only be as big as the
   content in the two widgets – product categories and shopping cart. Every time
   I move another widget into the sidebar it pushes it all down. See [http://www.cherrybliss.com.au](http://www.cherrybliss.com.au)
 * Thanks!

 * what is the question?
 * do you mean the blue background color?
 * if so, then edit style.css of the theme:
    find this style:
 *     ```
       #sidebar-1 .sidebar:first-child,
       #sidebar-1 .sidebar.first-child {
       	background-color: #7DCFE7;
       	border-bottom-color: #1F9FD4;
       	border-bottom-style: dotted;
       }
       ```
   
 * change it to:
 *     ```
       #sidebar-1,
       #sidebar-1 .sidebar.first-child {
       	background-color: #7DCFE7;
       	border-bottom-color: #1F9FD4;
       	border-bottom-style: dotted;
       }
       ```
   
 * to get the blue background behind all sidebar widgets.
