Found a workaround. Setting the variable ‘min-height’ in the array ‘#content’ of style.css to the length of the current sidebar.

#content {
	margin: 0 34% 0 7.6%;
	width: 58.4%;
/* 121107 hb	workarround for missing length synchronization */
	min-height: 750px;
}

‘Faux columns’ (setting a background image in the colour of the #content area) would have helped as well.

hmm…

I spent some hours and reviewed the code in order to find differences between this version and the original. There are not so many differences. Most of them are related to the change of template version from 1.2. There is no area, where a sidebar is manually generated out of the style.css entry #sidebar. So for me it looks like, that this is a legacy way to create a sidebar.

Can someone help me with the syntax to create this sidebar in the expected way and in which file to place the code? (e.g. function.php?)

Thanx, Hermann

I have to admit that I inherited the page maintenance. I have also to admit that I’m not very familar with wordpress – so some questions might be stupid. There’s a section “#sidebar” in the style.css which I can’t find in the origin theme. Did you refer to this one to be adapted?

#sidebar {
	width: 202px;
	float: right;
	padding: 17px;
}
