    I know this has been asked a million time but… i’ve spent one hour reading topics but nothing helped me…

    I’m modifying my blog. I moved the sidebar from the right to the left. But all posts are now displayed under the sidebar. I’ve tried a lot of things but nothing worked to move them back to the top.

    Please help me find what’s the problem.

    PS: it’s still a “draft”, so the display of the posts is screwed but that’s “normal”. Also, i’ve got a ton of errors when validating the page. It’s new and i dunno why?!

  • Your posts are also truncated at the right margin.
    I’m sure it’s a width problem in both your main content and your sidebar.
    Play around with changing the widths of each – i.e make content area larger and sidebar smaller.

    Check your audi r10 post, the video window is probably a lil too wide. Also try to check your page with both firefox and IE, since it looks very screwed up in firefox

    Ok i’ll try modifying the values of the container, but i don’t really know which one. I will also remove the Audi R10 post, but it displayed perfectly before.
    And finally, yes, in IE the blog is displaying a bit differently.

    I’ve tried modifying a ton of thing, but it won’t work. I also tried removing the Audi post but it’s not the problem. But, i’m a bit stuck now…

    From moving the sidebar over did you add / remove / change anything at all in the sidebar? Or is it absolutely the same as before?

    Exactly the same width etc. Didn’t change anything except from sidebar from right to left and narrowcolumn from left to right. It’s really annoying, it’s taking too much time to resolve the problem and i’m sure it’s only one little value that’s incorrect somewhere…

    I had exactly the same problem doing the same thing to my site. Have you added up all your margin and padding values and added them to the various widths? I’m getting the total width to be exactly 760 px, so you might as a test want to increase it slightly up to 765, to check if it’s the widths that are doing it.

    You got your content set at 580px, and your sidebar set at 217px wide, which adds up to 797px.

    You’ve wrapped it in a box that’s set at 760px. ?? So narrow one or both, or widen that 760. Don’t forget the margins and padding count too.

    I’m working on it. Thanks a lot for your help. I still need to try out because nothing changed…

    If I make the width 990px using the webdev bar the problem remains.

    arnoz – can you download your theme, zip it and send it to me? I’ll be better placed to try and fix it working on the actual code. You can send it to tamba2 at gmail dot com

    Solved ??

    get_sidebar was being called before content:
    get_header
    get_sidebar
    --- content ---
    get_footer

    swapping things:
    get_header
    --- content ---
    get_sidebar
    get_footer

    I have no idea right now (lack of coffee doesn’t help) but hey, it works ??
