Left Sidebar For The 2 Column Neoclassical Theme

Had a request to make the sidebar float to the left for the 2 Column Neoclassical Theme. The original mod looks like what you are seeing now. These codes will make the sidebar align to the left side. It is added to the custom css file so you do not mess up the main stylesheet.

Go- DashBoard – Appearance – Themes – Editor – Custom CSS ( assuming you are already using this Theme) Find any empty space below whatever you have in the custom css. Copy and Paste these lines of codes in.

.custom #left_box { width: 550px; float: right; }
.custom #content { width: 550px; padding: 0 5px; float: right; }
.custom #content_inner { width: 540px; padding: 0 9px; }
.custom .sidebar { width: 300px; float: left; padding: 0 0 0 10px; border-right: 1px dotted #ddd; border-left : none;}

Update File. Refresh Browser and your sidebar should be on the left side.

If you want the sidebar to float back to the right, just go back to your Custom CSS and delete the codes above.

Please note that these codes only works if you are using the first version of the 2 Column Neoclassical Theme. It will not look nice in the final version which was updated on the 8th of April. I highly doubt it will work with the original 3 Column also.
