Is there a way to swap the sidebars in a 3 column page?

    Hi – I have seen that something similar to this has been asked before but it looks like the topics have closed.
    Does anyone know a simple way to swap the order of the sidebars so that in a 3 column, content centre format the left sidebar is the thinner one and right is the wider one?

    I have tried the suggestion made previously to swap the sizes of sidebars 1 and 2 in css here
    /* sidebar primary */
    .s1 { width: 260px; z-index: 2; }

    and the same with the secondary and this is easy enough to do, but it breaks layouts where just one column is used, as its still calling the correct sidebar, but now the size has changed.

    So my question is, without bodging it and changing the width of the columns, is there away to simply call them in a different order in css?

    I hope this makes sense. I can’t supply a link as I’m testing this locally

  • Hi robholsman. The short answer is ‘no’, there isn’t a way to simply call them in a different order in css. Don’t know if you’ve seen this thread but it summarizes my thoughts on the question.

    Thanks for the reply – I had a feeling that was the case. Everything I had seen to accomplish this was very much in the “hack” territory which more often than not ruins the responsiveness, hence my question!
