    I want to do some custom sidebars. I would like the Left Sidebar to go across the full content width before the page content, and the Right Side to go across the full content after the page content. I am struggling to figure out how to do this with the theme settings and CSS.

    I want it to look like this, with all three elements displaying as blocks without any floats:

    Hi hmsvictory,

    I think you can use the Advanced Layout Builder for that.
    You can use a Color Section on top and inside it is a Widget Area element.
    Then you have the middle for the main content and for the bottom another Color Section with Widget Area element.
    I hope this helps.

    Best regards,

    For a regular page, I agree. In this case, I want to use this in my WooCommerce store, so it would be better for me to do the layout as sidebars. I understand that I can use the product grid in the advanced layout builder but that is causing pagination and permalink issues.

    Hi hmsvictory,

    Thanks for giving us admin access, I have added this CSS code in your Quick CSS:

    #main .container_wrap.sidebar_right .av-section-cont-open {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
}

#main .container_wrap.sidebar_right .av-section-cont-open > * {
    width: 100%;
}

#main .container_wrap.sidebar_right .av-section-cont-open .entry-content-wrapper {
    padding-right: 0;
}

#main .container_wrap.sidebar_right .av-section-cont-open .inner_sidebar {
    margin-left: 0;
}

    Please review your site.

    Nikko, what would the proper selectors be for the left sidebar? I tried but was unsuccessful.

    Hi hmsvictory,

    I apologize for the delayed response.
    Have you tried to change sidebar_right to sidebar_left? It should work unless there some changes in the classnames.
    I remember not seeing any left sidebar in the link you gave before, can you give us a link again? so we can try to inspect and give you CSS that should work.

    Best regards,
    Nikko
