hey! so it’s actually that the dual sidebar version is for desktop, while the header version (which I assume is what you’re seeing) is for mobile devices and smaller than average laptops. since it’s got two sidebars, the content area takes up more space than the average sidebar theme, so I had to make the breakpoint for mobile higher than normal. your blog will look like how it is in the preview to viewers who have a screen size above 1280px (you can see what size screen you have here, and also what it will look like to visitors with larger screens).

thank you for using my theme and taking the time to go through the troubleshooting checklist, though! I really appreciate it.
