# Getting sidebar to align with the content

 * I am busy with modifying a theme to fit my own purpose.
 * It was almost finished, when a problem occured. The sidebar I added wouldn’t 
   align with the content. I have tried a lot of different codes and settings, but
   I can’t get the sidebar next to the content. Can anyone help me?
