Offset Sidebar for Chatango Chat

[Emmie]

Hey there everyone. A couple of friends and I are looking to start up our own hunger games site. We are very used to using Chatango in a sidebar for chatting while we write, but for this particular theme the sidebar redux plugin completely messes up the forum because it tries to merge into the main section. Can anyone help us make it so that the sidebar is off to the side against the background instead of right in the center on the main part? Thanks in advance!

Would something as simple as this work?

<div style="position:absolute; top:200px; left:5px; width:200px; height:100%;">
<div style="position:fixed; background-color:gray;">
Chatango here
</div>
</div>

You can put it at the top of your wrapper template or in your global/main headers.
