I am in the process of creating a wordpress blog. I chose a template with three to four sidebars. My problem is how do I stop the text from overlaping at the top of the page on this blog. Or how can I possibly get rid of certain sidebars all together. If you click on the link below you will see what I am talking about. I have about four to five pages. You see at the top where the lase page texts overlaps this sidebar called special sidebar. How can I hide or fix this.I am not to skilled at php and don't want to screw anything up.

    Looks ok to me. But I usually look at the index.php file first and see what other .php calls it makes. then I look at the style sheet and see how big the "containers" are.

    ie: the sidebar container may be referenced as #.sidebar in the style css sheet with a width of 100px. you can adjust that as long as your other containers (body, etc.) are wide enough.

    to delete the sidebars, just remove the sidebar call from the index.php or wherever it is.

    If I do this will it stop the text at the top for overlapping.

      If by default the widgets in the sidebar where their when you installed it then;

      add widgets to the sidebar and the default widgets should go away.

      Hope that helps.
