Error solving

I had a bit of last minute error solving to do when I was re-introduced to the necessity of testing your site on multiple devices! While working fine on mobile devices and my 1920 x 1080 laptop screen, parts of the desktop site didn't work on smaller screens, particularly on the square screens of the library computers!

The fix ended up being fairly simple once I found a computer with the appropriate screen size and a browser with the developer toolbar; the sidebar was 20 pixels wider than it needed to be and that was causing it to clip at certain, half-way points on the desktop styling. Not a major problem technically, but a good reminder that testing on multiple computers as well as mobile devices is always a good idea.
