Trouble making a sticky column in "Single Template" on Crypto News Demo Site

Hey there!

I’m going to try to keep my request super simple. I’ve read through about 15 posts in your forum here and none of the suggestions are helping. I’m not a CSS expert, but I definitely tried everything suggested and I’m still struggling.

All I’m trying to so is to make the sidebar/column sticky within the the Crypto News theme/template (I have the full Crypto News Demo site installed), and I’m trying to edit the “Single Template – Global”. I’m also running the latest version of your theme on WordPress 6.3.2. (Brand new install of everything on a new WordPress site this past week).

When I make the “Stay in the Loop” column sticky, the column WILL move up and down the page as a sticky column, however the column doesnt start to move until you are halfway down the contents of the column (the column doesnt “stick” until Ive scrolled down to about the middle of the column”)

I would like to make the “Stay in the Loop” column sticky starting at the top of the column where it says “Stay in the Loop”.

I’ve tried playing with -200 and 200 padding/margins in the CSS for the column (and higher and lower values), this doesnt help with the column becoming sticky when scrolling down, however it does affect the “timing” of when the column scrolls back up again.

I’ve also tried playing with the Sticky offset, which doesn’t seem to do anything at all, which confuses me. If I set sticky offset from 100 to 400 lets say, nothing changes…if I set the offset to 1000 or greater, the sticky column is no longer “sticky” at all even when “Sticky” is checked.

Can you please just install the Crypto News Demo site with all the content, and let me know what settings I need to change to make this work properly? I would appreciate this time-saving help. I’ve spent about 2 hours on this so far.

Thank you in advance for your time and help with this 🙂
