Change sidebar's width and position

Activello
1

Hey folks!

I installed the Activello theme and so far I am really happy with it. The only thing which bothers me is the sidebar’s width and position. It would be great if I could make it smaller and change its position to the very right so I can use that space to enlarge the content width.

Is this possible? And if yes, how do I make these changes?

Thank you! :slight_smile:

Oh, and I’d like to remove the “posted on” before the date. Is that possible, too?

Hi @doyouliketohurt,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your questions.

You can try achieving this by adding the following CSS code in the Custom CSS option of your theme on the below path.

Admin Area -> Appearance -> Customize -> Activello Options -> Other -> Custom CSS

@media (min-width: 992px) {
.main-content-inner.col-sm-12.col-md-8 {
    width: 70%;
}
div#secondary{
  width: 30%;
}
}

Yes you can remove it by using the attached small custom developed plugin.

Best Regards,
Movin

Thank you for responding, I would make my own topic, but it is not letting me for some reason.

I am trying to achieve much the same as what is stated above, I want the same thing essentially as what is stated above, I just, for some reason cannot get the code to work.

I want the sidebar to be pushed to the far right on my posts, and then allow for it to be reduced a little bit width wise to allow the content in the middle to be highlighted a little bit more.

I tried plugging that into my custom css and it didnt work for me. Maybe I wasn’t editing the right numbers? any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

Please try creating it on this page Activello - Colorlib Support Forum by clearing your browser cache or using different browser.

Hi Movin,

Thanks for making the two codes. I’d like to accomplish both, both codes do not work.
