Issue Summary

Could we have an alternate version that has a left block style (mirrored)? I'm still used to that layout.

Great theme!

Thanks

i feel REALLY silly asking that. i apologize for asking such a silly question without first thinking about it. i simply forgot that all the blocks get reset to what ever the theme defaults. so i changed the blocks to "left nav" lol.

We can make a left block style exactly the mirror image of right block style as follows

1) Removing all the css applied to left sidebar from style.css

2) Adding the following css code in custom .css file

#sidebar-wrapper #sidebar-left {
  padding: 1.2em 0;
}

.sidebar-double #sidebar-wrapper, .rightbar #sidebar-wrapper {
  background: url(images/rightbar_bkg.png) 100% 0 repeat-y;
}

.sidebar-double #sidebar-wrapper {
  background: url(images/rightbar_bkg.png) 100% 0 repeat-y;
}

.sidebar-double #sidebar-wrapper #sidebar-left {
  background: url(images/rightbar_bkg.png) 100% 0 repeat-y;
}

#sidebar-left .block {
  margin: 0 2px 2em 2px;
}

#sidebar-left .block-title {
  background:url(images/rightbar_header_bkg.png) top repeat-x;
}

#sidebar-left .blockinner h2.title {
  font-size: 1.55em;
  color: #666;
  margin: 0;
  background:url(images/rightbar_header_ornament.png) right top no-repeat;
  height: 41px;
   padding: 0em .6em 0 0em;
}

#sidebar-left .blockinner .content {
  background: #DDD7CD url(images/bottom_bkg.png) repeat-x scroll 0 0;
  padding: .4em 1em;
}
