 * I wonder if there is a quick and easy way to be able to close the sidebar by 
   clicking anywhere outside the sidebar, instead of clicking the X. I don’t wanna
   mess with scripting, but if there was a line or two that could be added to the
   php, that’d be nice.
    Thanks!

 * Sorry, I don’t have a quick line or two for this, I’d need to rewrite JavaScript
   for this behavior.

 * No worries. We’ll muddle through. 😉
 * Maybe something for a future update?
