    homepage side bar on wrong side; main content overlaps sidebar on my site. I asked the person who created the theme and they told me to reinstall the theme. The only tweaking I did was to my logo at the top and deleted the top menu (there were 2). The let side bar that is supposed to be on the home page, only shows right.

    so 2 questions:
    1. how do I fix the overlap to it and 2. how do I fix the side bar so it can either stay to the right or go to the left ? I think I want it on the left-hand side on the homepage. The rest of the ‘single’ blogs, the sidebar is working perfectly.

    and the main content overlaps (graph/pin type of blogging) when I open the page up to full-width and that is when you see a huge empty space. Thanks!

    my website. Here it is

    Hi fallleaves98,

    You can put both, the sidebar and the articles floating left, and that will work I think.

    This will be the CSS to add:

    .sidebar {float:left;}
#infinite-articles {float:left;}

    IMPORTANT: I strongly recommend to use a child theme to customize your theme, otherwise every change that you made will be lost if you update the theme. If you need some info about child themes you can find it here:

    Let me know if that helps!

    where do I put that in the .CSS theme? do I add that code to there?

    Hey, please check the IMPORTANT text that I wrote before. That would help you keep every customization intact after updating anything related to your theme.
