Did you go to WP-Admin->Appearance->Widgets and add the "Categories" widget to the "Primary Widget Area"?

At wordpress default theme files, you can see stylesheet as the first option, above popup comments, Try it.

Go to WP-Admin->Appearance->Editor and open the "style.css" file found in the right column.

Look for this code to edit the left column:
Code:

#content { margin: 0 280px 0 20px; }
Now look for this code to edit the right sidebar:
Code:

#primary, #secondary { float: right; overflow: hidden; width: 220px; }
Both of these blocks of code are found below the following comment:
Code:

/* LAYOUT: Two columns DESCRIPTION: Two-column fixed layout with one sidebar right of content */

  OK...so if I wanted the left column to 750px wide...I would change:
  
  ---
  #content {
  margin: 0 280px 0 20px;
  }
  ---
  
  Change the 280px to a larger number?
  
  Thanks

  Ok...I increased the 280px to 480px.....this increased my left column.
  
  But my right column...which should be set to 350px is kicked down...the overall site width is 1200px.
  
  Thanks

I figured it out...had to change the number below to 350px....the same as my right column width...

#container {
float: left;
margin: 0 -350px 0 0;
width: 100%;
}

Thanks for your help on this!

Another quick tweak request...Best way to delete the very top row above the header?

Here is how you can delete the top row, above the header, and also keep the content within your page's source for SEO.

Add the following CSS code (marked in red) to the http://gowebmarketing.com/shop/wp-co...yten/style.css file:
Code:

/* =Header -------------------------------------------------------------- */ #header { padding: 0 0 0 0; } #site-title { display: none; float: left; margin: 0 0 18px 0; width: 700px; font-size: 30px; line-height: 6px; } #site-title a { color: #000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; } #site-description { display: none; clear: right; float: right; font-style: italic; margin: 14px 0 18px 0; width: 220px; }
