# column shortcode

 * Hello,
 * The column shortcode stopped working on my posts. And my posts are long. I need
   columns!
 * Since I recently began allowing adsense ads on the site, I can’t help but wonder
   if that has something to do with the trouble.
 * Anyway, here are 3 of the posts. You can see that all of the text is aligned 
   in a single column on the left half of the page, rather than split into 2 columns(
   as intended).
 * [Example 1](http://www.sex-religion-politics.com/still-small-scratching/)
    [Example 2](http://www.sex-religion-politics.com/blurry-prodigal/)
   [Example 3](http://www.sex-religion-politics.com/christmas-easter/)
 * Any idea what is causing this and how to fix it?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi SMA-wp. Your columns are still there. They’re just stacked on top of each 
   other. Reducing the column width a bit should fix it. Try adding this to your
   custom css:
 *     ```
       .su-column-size-1-2 {
         width: 45%;
       }
       ```

 * Hello bdbrown,
 * Thank you for your suggestion. It did not resolve the issue.
 * What else can I do to fix this? Try another theme?
 * Thanks!

 * Maybe try it with the !important rule:
 *     ```
       .su-column-size-1-2 {
         width: 45% !important;
       }
       ```
