Answers.Body: <p>A bit of css will do it.
  I would suggest to create a new css file in you custom directory like <code>/wp-content/plugins/files/civicrm/my_css/my_stylesheet.css</code>
  Navigate to <strong>Administer->System Settings->Resource URLs</strong> and put your URL to the css file <code>http://yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/files/civicrm/my_css/my_stylesheet.css</code></p>
  
  <p>In your css file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#crm-container .column-0 {
          width: 50% !important; // set the width of the left column to the percentage needed
  }
  #crm-container .column-1 {
              width: 50% !important; // set the width of the right column
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Note that between the two columns the percentage must sum 100%</p>
  
  <p>The next style will set the columns to occupy the entire width of your screen </p>
  
  <pre><code>#crm-container .column {
          float: none !important; // remove floating so the column-0 stays on top of column-1
  }
  
  #crm-container .column-0, #crm-container .column-1 {
          width: 100% !important; // set the width of the columns to the cantainer width
          padding: 0 0 25px !important; // reduce bottom padding 
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>You might not need to set the weight with <code>!important</code> but it never worked for my without it, also you might need to clear the cache of your browser.</p>

  A bit of css will do it.
  I would suggest to create a new css file in you custom directory like `/wp-content/plugins/files/civicrm/my_css/my_stylesheet.css`
  Navigate to **Administer->System Settings->Resource URLs** and put your URL to the css file `http://yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/files/civicrm/my_css/my_stylesheet.css`
  
  In your css file:
  
  ```
  #crm-container .column-0 {
          width: 50% !important; // set the width of the left column to the percentage needed
  }
  #crm-container .column-1 {
              width: 50% !important; // set the width of the right column
  }
  
  ```
  
  Note that between the two columns the percentage must sum 100%
  
  The next style will set the columns to occupy the entire width of your screen
  
  ```
  #crm-container .column {
          float: none !important; // remove floating so the column-0 stays on top of column-1
  }
  
  #crm-container .column-0, #crm-container .column-1 {
          width: 100% !important; // set the width of the columns to the cantainer width
          padding: 0 0 25px !important; // reduce bottom padding 
  }
  
  ```
  
  You might not need to set the weight with `!important` but it never worked for my without it, also you might need to clear the cache of your browser.
