I love this theme but the important “category” section is falling off the right side of the page. Is there any way to justify the contents left rather than center. – or move the right sidebar to the left.
Tried deleting post date (#21 and 22) without achieving this effect.
Any fix?
Thank you

Thx that moved the sidebar to the left, but it removed the white “wallpaper” from the page section (was white now yellow like the background)
Can I get white back in posts/pages?
Also< i removed the post dates (#21), which moved the page closer to the sidebar in posts but not in pages.
Sorry no left sidebar option in theme that I can find. Thanks again!
I just moved the sidebar content to the main menu, making it more visible, I think that’ll work better —- thanks for all your help. F
Hi francinerose
Good Morning..
would u mind to share what u did?

no code – just created a menu and added categories in sidebar to it, so now they’re across the top. Not a pretty fix, but makes them more visible. Thx again.
Hi francinerose
thanks..
let me know if u have any issue..
Om
also..
if u r using wordpress.com free blog..then pls try this
div#comments {
display: none;
}
