How To Move Or Remove The Sidebar

Some templates made by SimplyTheStudio have the sidebar on the left and some have it on the right side. If you do not like the initial position of the sidebar in the template you bought, you can easily change it yourself. In this tutorial we are going to show you how to move the sidebar to the left or right, or how to remove it completely.

4. Click inside the code and press CTRL + F (or CMD + F on Mac). A small search box in the top right corner will appear.
5. Type into the search box — .main-wrap and press ENTER.
