 * Can anyone look at my blog page and tell me why the right column is wrapping 
   or moving to the bottom of the first column?
 * I took all content out of that column and put one word in it, and it still does
   the same thing. So I don’t think it is anything in the sidebar causing it.

 * Also, I know it is too narrow that is something I will work on next after I fix
   this.
 * The theme company that made it does not know. Also makes me think I should get
   a different theme if they can’t troubleshoot their own theme.

 * That’s likely due to an extra closing div tag — see the error around line 674:

 * It may be in your content or a plugin or the theme files.

 * You’ll likely want to clear up some of the other errors as well.

 * Does anything think this is something I might have done, or sloppy coding from
   the guys that made the theme?
 * Input appreciated.

 * Their demo looks ok to me so I think it’s something you’ve done afterwards.
 * To help steer you, looking at the structure of their demo:
 *     ```
       <div class="container">
          <div class="row">
             <div id="content" class="eight columns">
             <div id="sidebar" class="four columns">
       ```
   
 * you see their sidebar is inside the ‘row’ div, and this itself is inside the ‘
   container’ div. Now, looking at your current structure…
 *     ```
       <div class="container">
          <div class="row">
             <div id="content" class="eight columns">
          </div>
        <div class="post_container">
        <div class="post_container">
        <div class="post_container">
        <div class="post_container">
        <div class="pagination">
       </div>
       <div id="sidebar" class="four columns">
       ```
   
 * Your sidebar is not only outsite the ‘row’ div, but outside the ‘container’ completely–
   it needs to be directly after the closing ‘content’ div.
 * What is useful is downloading ‘firebug’ plugin for firefox and it can show you
   where errors like this occur. I couldn’t live without firebug now!
 * Hope this helps.

 * I could understand that if I modified code, but I only used the widgets that 
   came with it. I did not add any code except links to outside information such
   as the FB and Crossloop things you see posted.
 * Could I have still made this shift happen if I did not touch the code?
 * Thanks Phil!

 * I use Chrome, but will see if I can get Firebug for it. Thanks for the tip.

 * Chrome is pretty good too, you can right-click on something, then ‘Inspect element’–
   it does a good amount of the firebug stuff.
 * Sounds like you haven’t made any modifications to the theme, so why not try installing
   a fresh copy of the theme again.
 * Are you using ftp?

 * I use BlueHost – and I could just go into the WP panel and download the theme
   again that way. I also have a control panel file manager. If I had to I could
   FTP, but I went with BlueHost so I could just have a one click install at the
   time.
 * Thanks again,

 * What I would do:
 * 1. Switch to default Wp theme (twenty twelve)
 * 2. From control panel, rename ‘business-lite’ to ‘business-lite-OLD’
 * 3. Reupload fresh copy of business-lite from WP.
 * 4. From WP admin, switch to new fresh theme and check if issue is still there
   or not.
 * Hosting control panel is great, but much quicker using FTP and simplifies everything.
