  I just switched to the new Modularity Lite wordpress theme and I’m having some layout issues. I added the optional sidebar and tried to set the width to 250 but it made a big space between the sidebar and my posts. I removed that manual width setting to get rid of the space but now my sidebar looks way too wide. I can’t seem to find the place to widen my posts. I am assuming since my header is 950, my posts need to be 700 wide (for a 250 sidebar)? Any suggestions? My blog is http://denisesdish.com.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You’d need to set the main content to 650px because there is a 50px gap made of padding, margin and border between that and the sidebar. The code below should do what you want.

  div.home {width:650px;}
  div.last {width:250px;}
