 * Make the below suggested change and any others in a child theme and not directly
   in the main theme itself in order to prevent loss of customizations upon theme
   updates.
 * See [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * Add the following at the end of child theme’s style.css (WP dashboard -> Appearance-
   > Editor):
 *     ```
       #s {
           width: 200px;
       }
       ```
