    Hi guys,

    I want to change the .content width on pages that have a sidebar from 700px to 780px. There's too much white space between the content and sidebar. Here's an example page: http://instituteforbiblereading.org/about/

    I make this change in the Simple Custom CSS Plugin:

    .content {
    width: 780px;
    }

    It makes the width 780px, but the .content area becomes unresponsive to different screen sizes -- i.e. the text runs off the screen. Do I have to make additional changes within the media queries, or is there a different way I should be doing the initial width change?

    Any help would be great, thanks!
