Hello,

I just purchased the CSS upgrade and would like to edit my site to do the following:

(1) Remove the left sidebar entirely (including no “Meta” or “Categories” sections, which appear when I remove all widgets).

(2) Narrow the right sidebar to approximately half its current width.

(3) Extend the middle/content area to cover the now deleted left sidebar and the now halved right sidebar.

Thanks for any help!

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

To hide the left sidebar in the Oxygen theme, add this to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor:
```
#secondary {
	display: none;
}

#content {
	margin-left: 0;
}
```

To change the width of the right sidebar:
```
#content {
	margin-right: 15%;
}

#tertiary {
	width: 13%;
	margin-left: -13%;
}
```

See the “#content” rules above.

Note that the header image you used is not as wide as it could be. Go to Appearance → Header and upload an image that is at leas 940 pixels wide to fill the entire space allotted.

Also, to adjust which widgets appear in the right sidebar, go to Appearance → Widgets and add some widgets to the “Secondary Sidebar” area. Here is a help page about widgets:
