Can you help? I have a page within my site called "Brokerage". I edited the page and in the content section I have this (from the HTML view so you can see it): <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Column 1 </strong></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Test column 1.</strong></p> <h4 style="text-align: left;">Column 2</h4> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Test Column 2</strong></p> I pasted your above code in the customfunctions.php file. I also pasted the following into the custom.css file: .column {float: left;} #content-0 {width: 400px;} #content-1 {width: 300px;} I had hoped that this would break up my test columns and put column 1 on the left and column 2 on the right. What do I have wrong? Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Bill, I am VERY new to WordPress and Thesis and I can't seem to get this to work. Can you help? I have a page within my site called "Brokerage".
