iBlogPro sidebar position issues

[aeverse 0]

Hi, I'm trying to create this design: http://www.methodikal.net/hytrainium_v3/product.html onto this installation of iBlogPro: http://www.hytrainium.com/wp-dev/products-2/ I've spent what feels like hours scouring through the forum trying to find the solution to my attempt at moving the sidebar right. attempted everything I can think of and I'm stumped. any ideas??? Thanks, Amanda

In the example you gave, the sidebar is on the left so I'm assuming you meant left instead of right. Also, on your link I can see that the sidebar is on the left as well, although I'm not sure why it's pushed down so low. Are you using the iBlogPro Page Options to accomplish this? If not, you can find them towards the bottom of each page. Here is a screenshot to show you what it looks like:

Sorry - yes, I meant Left, as in the static layout example. And the fact that it's pushed down below the main content area is the exact problem I'm experiencing. I've selected "Left" in Page Options, and have even gone into theme.css and attempted to force the issue further with these changes:

#sidebar{
			width: 300px;
			float: left;
		}
	
		.sidebar_left #maincontent {float: left;}
		.sidebar_left #sidebar {float: left;}

Perhaps I made the mess myself while trying to fix things...

Hmmm, yeah do me a favor and take everything you did in theme.css out and if you're still having the issue I'll check it out with Firebug and try to see what's causing the issue.

HA! You're brilliant -- and I'm past thinking straight. Returning these lines to the original settings has fixed it. Thanks for your help. Now I can get some sleep.

#maincontent {
			width: 640px; /* width of left column */
			float: left;
		}
	
		#sidebar{
			width: 300px;
			float: right;
		}
	
		.sidebar_left #maincontent {float: right;}
		.sidebar_left #sidebar {float: left;}
