Treehouse Plugin with One Page Workshop.

I recently built a site using the one page WordPress theme workshop. It is working great. When I add the Treehouse Badges plugin, it forces itself to full size and makes my sidebar show up under my content instead of in the appropriate location. Any suggestions on why this is happening?

The site is being developed offline. I was hoping for someone with knowledge of the plugin to have some insight. Maybe Zac will drop by. He wrote the plugin and the workshop.

Zac Gordon may drop by. It sounds like a CSS problem. Have you tried tinkering with the dev tools?

The issue is probably with the CSS in your theme not the plugin. Do other widgets work in your sidebar?

Thanks for tagging Zac Gordon. Never bothered thinking about if and how to do that here. Other widgets work fine. Just that plugin.

Hey all! If this is something that is CSS related, try checking out the Code Excerpt here for the markup used: https://wordpress.org/plugins/official-treehouse-badges-widgets-and-shortcodes/faq/

If you can't control it with CSS, I would have to see something online to poke around and see what else may be causing it.
