resize sidebar to fit content

Hello!

You can easily accomplish that by editing some css code. I would advice creating a child theme for this to ensure that you don’t lose any changes on an update, or install Simple Custom CSS plugin.

Here is the code necessary to shring the whole sidebar, and increase the content area accordingly:

.hfeed {
  width: 80%;
}

.aside {
  width: 17%;
}

If you want, you can change the percentage values based on your needs.

Let me know if this worked, and if there is anything else I can help you with.

Thanks so much.

I installed the simple custom CSS plugin. and i put

.hfeed {
  width: 80%;
}

.aside {
  width: 17%;
}

into it.

it did resize them nicely. but it also changed the format of the whole page. the whole sidebar as seemed to shifted down.

Ok i’ve been messing with the % and seems to be fitting it in better.

Now is there a good code to put in so my ‘posts’ text are wider?

I sure wish i knew coding better!

thanks for your help!

Sure, you just have to set the .hfeed width percentage properly, for me I think the best is at 71%:

.hfeed {
  width: 71%;
}
