    I am looking for a way to re-size the side bar/header area (where the primary menu and logo is kept). I just want to reduce it a little as it’s taking up too much of the left side of the screen

    Thank you for contacting us!

    The sizing of the sidebar/header area in the Monument theme uses the Bootstrap framework to adjust how the area displays across multiple device screen sizes, but unfortunately there isn’t a way to make adjustments to the sizing through the available theme controls.

    However, you might want to try out our newest theme Crio which is available directly from the WordPress repository.  Crio offers a more powerful framework than the one contained in Monument and our other Inspirations themes and will also allow you to have the sidebar/header design as well.

    I hope that Crio is able to give you the design controls you need on your website and please let us know if there is anything else that we can do to assist you!

    Thanks, I will look into it, but I have already built a lot of my site with the Monument theme as I really liked it, the theme also doesn’t re-size any particularly well on other devices, I would actually argue that having a large portion of the screen taken up by the header is the main reason for this!

    Hello,
    There is one way to shrink the sidebar down to fit the content you have inside of it. You can use Custom CSS by navigating to Customize -> Advanced -> Custom JS&CSS and pasting the following code into the Custom Theme CSS field:

    @media only screen and (min-width: 992px) {
        .sidebar-nav {width: unset;}
    }

    I hope this helps you! Please let us know if you have any more questions.

    This post was helpful. I made a slight change to @media only screen and (min-width: 922px)
    {.sidebar-nav {max-width: 300px;}}
