  The so-called sidebars on that theme are actually footer sidebars,found in the footer. If you need sidebar widgets on on left or right, then you must change to a theme with a side sidebar.

  It may, or may not, be possible to move your sidebar (footerbar) via a CSS upgrade. But I’m no expert with CSS so cannot tell you “yes” or “no.”

  You can experiment with the cascading style sheet (CSS) for free:

  ok
  So I think there is no option for me other than changing the theme.

  I believe that is so.
  As I said, I’m no expert with CSS. It might be possible to change how the sidebars appear. I just don’t know. But if you don’t know CSS and you want your site up and running, the most efficient way to do that (and have a sidebar on the side) would be to change to a theme that already works that way.
  To be honest, your new Piano Black looks very elegant to me. The background, greys, blacks and whites make the images strikingly colorful, bright, and sharp.

  If you were very emotionally attached to Vostok, I can move this thread to the CSS forum so you could get advise about changing the style sheet. But you’d need to buy the design upgrade (paid yearly) to maintain it.
