 * I guess I need to create a specific div for the sidebar?
    I tried to put <?php
   get_sidebar(‘sidebar-1’); ?> just after the lines you told me, but the page lost
   all its sizing, it only had the width of the sidebar.

 * Hi Kathryn,
 * My sidebar and posts “width” are very tiny, so I guess it should be fine regarding
   maximum width. However, for the right place for the sidebar: do you mean it should
   be in the content php file, under the content div? Or in the header php file,
   in the content div?
 * Thanks.

 * I managed to have the sidebar back, but i’m still unable to find out how to avoid
   the huge space afterwards until the post begins. The sidebar should start at 
   the same height as the posts, and I can´t figure out how.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * Sorry for that, the syntax error is now fixed.
    I´ve been messing around more
   than I expected, trying to change the sidebar, and now it´s completely gone!
 * Here´s what I have in the header:
 *     ```
       <div id ='widget-area'>
       <div class='widget'>
       <?php if ( is_active_sidebar( 'sidebar-1' ) ) {
       				get_sidebar();
       			} ?>
       </div>
   
       Where:
   
       .widget-area {
       width:150px;
       margin-left:15px;
       margin-right:15px;
       height:300px;
       background-color:#d5d6d7;
       clear:both;
       background:white;
   
       }
   
       .widget {
       	float:right;
       	align:right;
       }
   
       I made sure the content of my posts wasn´t a problem for the sidebar, the width is fixed to 400px...
   
       .page-content,
       .entry-content,
       .entry-summary {
       	color:black;
       	font-size: 14px;
       	width:400px;
       	font-size: 1.4rem;
       	margin: 1.5em 0 0;
   
       }
       ```
   
 * What am I doing wrong? Many thanks!
