Now, we need to move toggle button, which closes and opens sidebar, from the right to the left.

Go ACP>Look & Feel>your_skin>CSS tab>ipb_styles.css

Find:

.sidebar_toggle {
	text-align: right;	
	padding: 0px 3px;
	height: 20px;
	right: 15px;
	position: absolute;
	-moz-outline: 0;

and change position value from absolute to left.

How would I move the sidebar completely? I have to re-skin our forum to match the rest of our site, and the sidebar must be completely removed...

Welcome aboard

Disable/remove all sidebar modules and the sidebar will disappear.

I tried this and it worked perfectly; but I was left with a big gap between the right edge of the (moved) sidebar and the topic list.

How do I get rid of the gap?

Thanks!
