After a recent update, the header dropdown version of the sidebar shows two columns on my instance (Minima theme). Doesn’t feel intentional.

The extra column is intentional (per [this commit](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/4cca7de22dda2bfa0939c75fb4fe405a93c0a87d)), but I don’t think it’s supposed to be that narrow 🤔

i’m going to be rolling the drop down sidebar out on our site in the coming weeks (we use the legacy hamburger menu still). and i like the two column view that makes it visually more like the legacy menu. is the column width accessible via CSS code?

The theme forced the old menu to a single-column, that doesn’t work well with the new menu, so I’ve removed it here:

Thanks for reporting it @tomtjes!

yes, the relevant CSS we’ve added is:
```scss
.hamburger-panel .revamped .sidebar-section-wrapper.sidebar-section ul {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
}
```
So to get it back to one column you could do this in a theme:
```scss
.hamburger-panel .revamped .sidebar-section-wrapper.sidebar-section ul {
grid-template-columns: 1fr;
// you can also do something like `30% 70%` if you want to edit the column widths
// or `1fr 1fr 1fr` if you want 3 even columns
}
```
Or if you want the entire menu wider (the columns will adjust automatically) you could do something like this:
```scss
.hamburger-panel .revamped {
width: 500px;
}
```

Perfect, thanks for the quick fix and additional instructions!
