    Hello,

    my name is Javier and I am having some trouble customizing with my new Metro Pro theme. I am trying to adjust this theme to the main features of the old one (Tapestry) but the main thing for me is that the content area is reduced to 600 px in the desktop version. If possible I would also like to reduce the sidebar area width.

    I tried changing the CSS in the following places, but it didn't work:

    .content {
    float: right;
    width: 700px;
    }

    .sidebar-primary {
    float: right;
    width: 332px;
    }

    Any ideas about what else could I do to change the width without affecting responsiveness? I read similar threads but I couldn't figure out a solution.

    By the way, when I change the CSS in the firebug console it actually shows me the appearance I am looking for, but when I change the CSS file of the theme, nothing happens. I tried purging the dinamic cache and also the minimized files, but still nothing changes.
