    css file from http://www.ratehub.ca/css/main.css?v=5 has no impact to your theme, because it was co-existing with no any problem

    Yes it does, as it sets the width for #container and #footer, which overrides the width set by the theme. Perhaps there was a change in this CSS file that causes all of your sites which loads the CSS file to suddenly stop working properly.

    You are probably right, however it DID work 1240px with no css change, that’s all I can say.

    Have you tried adding a !important to the css that’s being overwritten by ratehub?

    like –

    .container_16 {
    width: 1240px !important;
    }

    Thank you kenmcneill, your code is working but like I said in a previous post: it was working even without doing any change to the css file. It just suddenly screwed up the columns setting.

    IMO, the change is not coming from you or Graphene, it’s coming from ratehub. They may have changed the name for the container now called “container”.(?) Their stylesheet uses the “container” div name, and is getting loaded after yours, so it gets priority. Either use the !important declaration, delete or fix ratehub, or rename container to something else. Of course, before you do any of this, please make a backup of your file! Also keep in mind that YMMV. 😉

    There are two things that you should not do here:

    1. Use an entire stylsheet meant for another site on your own. If you like a particular style, just copy/paste the relevant sections of the stylesheet.

    2. Not just do the above, but also load the stylesheet directly from the other site instead of placing it on your server. This shouldn’t be done on two counts: 1) The other site’s owner may not like it, as you are using up their server resources, and 2) Whenever the other site’s owner change the stylesheet, it affects your site as well.

    Oops, sorry I missed that. I thought ratehub was some kind of plugin.(?)

    The ratehub’s weird behavior is most likely the cause that the column setting got screwed up. I was following what they provide on line publicly for their widget for wordpress, didn’t realize the possible trouble there could be.

    To kenmcneill: yes, ratehub is providing widget for various purpose:
