Thanks stevewatt,

I added just this code in my child theme style.css:
#secondary {
padding: 0
}

, with the hopes that the 0 there affects the padding in the sidebar. But there’s no change. Can I use negative values, like -20% ?

Gotta admit, I’m a little confused.. and to add to this confusion, I’m using a widget called Simple Image Link to place the graphics in teh sidebar, since I don’t know how to use the text widget to do this.

Just looked through style.css – the #secondary div comes up four times in the following sections:

/* =Structure———————————————– */
/* Right Content */
/* One column */
and
/* =Responsive Structure————————————- */

I don’t have any right content, so which one of these sections should I edit – “structure”, “one column” or “responsive structure” ??

Thanks.

Elaine, is that part of the style.css ? Please post a code snippet if you can to help me find that section..

I am learning how to use Firebug now, but don’t really get it yet. Does anyone know what part of my child theme style.css I should modify?

Hello,

I have resolved the issue, and it was a simple solution: I had to switch to using plain text (UTF-8) in the Text Editor application on my Mac. I didn’t realize the Rich Text Formatting was throwing things off..

Thank you all… I found the right spot and it worked.

I think this kind of coding is called HTML… I am not really familiar with it. Can anyone recommend a good reference source to get me started on understanding the language?

Thanks.

Hi govpatel,

my theme (Twenty Eleven) doesn’t contain that line of code in footer.php

Here is the entire footer.php – where would you put that piece of code for the plugin?
