    Been chaning the padding to get the full width on front page- then all of the sudden my content on page with sidebar moved away to the side. Trying to get it back. But nope. No success.

    I added padding values here, but well yeh no luck

    .sidebar-content .content {
    float: right;
    padding: 100px 60px 50px;
    }

    Any ideas?

    The page you're having problems with isn't setup to use .sidebar-content .content. You are actually using content-sidebar-wrap, which has a width of 1440px on my retina MacBook Pro. Your content area has a width of 700px that is floated left and your sidebar has a width of 360px that is floated right. This leaves you with a balance of 380px that takes up the center of your page. If you want to move the content over to the right, set a left margin on the element. Don't use padding. Padding works inside the content div.

    thanks VictorI added margin-left: 120px; which fixed that particular page but now the front page looks funny. How can I have the front page in full width but still have this page to look like it does now?
