    Hi guys, I’m trying to do a few things with my site using the Cover Wp theme, but I just can’t seem to find the right options in the style.css file that comes with the theme. My site is at http://www.thedailyorbit.com and I’m trying to make the main text area, and the top sidebar 482 pixels each so they would both be the same width, with a 10 pixel buffer between them, I’m also trying to get that silly search box either at the bottom of my page, or off it altogether, the way it sits now is just in the way of my page tabs. Any help would be appreciated
    thanks
    Tim

    You need to do some serious changes.

    To change the block widths, add the code below to style.css:

    #sticky,
    #headline,
    #latest,
    #the_loop,
    #comments,
    #sidebar {
    	width:462px !important;
    }
    
    #left,
    #right {
    	width:225px !important;
    }

    The function get_search_form() displays the search form. You need to remove it from header.php and add it where you want the search form to display.

    You may also want to add the following stylesheet:

    ul#menu,
    .menu ul {
    	padding-right:0 !important;
    }

    Thanks so far, it looks like we are getting there, the widths are right, but now my sidebar is way too low, it should be up next to the main content body, but now it is down at the bottom of the page.
    And that pesky little search bar is still there even though I moved the line you told me to move from the header.php to the footer.php file

    You must also apply the style to div [code]#center[/code]
