 * I am facing exactly the same problems. There is nothing that changed recently.
   I didnt even add new plugins. I have no clue why these issues came up suddenly.
   Can someone please help me find a solution?

 * Thankyou Steyr, I;ve made the suggested change. But the font in Sidebar1(bottom
   one) has increased too. It now looks much bigger than the rest of the text on
   the page.
 * Also, another problem : When I try to post a comment on a post, the text size
   increases. The text looks huge…
 * I’ve been breaking my head over fixing these issues. I’d really really appreciate
   a solution to these.
 * Thanks.

 * Sorry, I cannot think of any other idea…you just have to test your sidebar code
   positioning for different combinations.
 * Good Luck.

 * in your stylesheet, (style.css) you should have code like below
 * #commentform input {
    width: 170px; padding: 2px; margin: 5px 5px 1px 0; border:
   1px solid #CCCCCC; background-color: #FFFFFF; }
 * Try reducing the width here.

 * Try these options:
 * 1. Try to reduce the size of your comments box. I feel this is causing the issue.
   
   2. If the above doesnt work, try placing your sidebar code right below the header
   code in page.php
 * let me know how it goes.

 * Looks like this is working 🙂
 * But another problem now. When I move the sidebar up, if its contents are longer
   than the top post height, the featured posts are getting pushed further down 
   creating a gap between top post and featured posts.
 * I figured out that I create a new sidebar and place it on the top. adjust its
   contents accordingly.
 * I created a sidebar2 but it is showing the same contents of sidebar1.
 * I used this tutorial to create it: [http://www.blogohblog.com/adding-extra-sidebar-to-your-wordpress-theme/](http://www.blogohblog.com/adding-extra-sidebar-to-your-wordpress-theme/)

 * Thankyou for the reply. Is this what I need to do for a dynamic sidebar?
 * <?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
 * Add the above code to sidebar.php ???
 * Where is this function defined? I cannot find widgets.php in wp-includes. Where
   can I find this file to upload?
 * Could you please tell me step by step about what exactly I need to do?
 * I am a newbie and am new to coding too.
 * Please help!
