If your error is a layout problem, check if:

1.  **The Sidebar is Invisible:** Make sure you've added at least one widget to the "Sidebar" in **Appearance > Widgets**. An empty sidebar won't appear.
2.  **The Columns Aren't Side-by-Side:** Ensure your template files (`index.php`, `page.php`, etc.) correctly wrap the main content and sidebar like this:
    ```php
    <div class="main-content-area">
        <div class="content-area">
            <?php /* main loop content here */ ?>
        </div>
        <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
    </div>
    
If the issue persists, could you tell me **what specific error message you see, or what visually is not working** (e.g., "The navigation menu is broken," or "My sidebar is underneath the main content")? That detail will help me pinpoint the exact fix!
