 * What specifically do I tweak to get the left sidebar to be equal width as the
   default width of the right sidebar? I’m not familiar with CSS and can’t figure
   out what controls/defines the left sidebar.
 * I’m using WP V4.2.2 raindrops theme 1.302.

 * Hi songiuno
 * And to strictly control, you need a high degree of customization of the CSS
 * A simple way that can be anyone
 * Dashboard / Appearance / Customize
 * Presentation / Layout and Sidebars /
 * Check Radio button at Select Box Layout responsive
 * Text field set value 960 at Fluid Max Width (px)
 * Can you satisfied with this way?
 * Thank you.

 * I’m very much into this question myself! 🙂
 * Nobita, I tried changing the Fluid Max Width (px) as suggested, but this does
   not impact on the width of the sidebars, only on the width of the entire box 
   layout. So I think you misunderstood the question posed by songuino?
 * I can see that one might choose different settings for the width of the left 
   sidebar, in this customisation column. For example, mine is set to 180 px. When
   the screen is 1280, I think that width is fitting.
 * [http://gestaltudvikling.dk/](http://gestaltudvikling.dk/)
 * But as the screen/window becomes smaller, the 180 width becomes less fitting.
   Is it possible to make the .lsidebar width responsive, like the .rsidebar width
   is? So that they’d be equal to each other?
 * I recognise that this might be difficult, because div.yui-u:nth-child(1) should
   then float left to meet the width of lsidebar.
    I’m not sure if that’s possible,
   in fact?

 * Thank you Nobita, I totally missed the purpose and functions of that customize
   option. I think it will do!
