The only difference is in CSS.  You can fix them by editing the *css card.

By default it has only these:

#primary {
  width:67%;
}
#secondary {
  width:28%;
}

But the built-in CSS also has these:

#primary {
  margin: 0 1%;
  float: left;
}
#secondary {
  margin: 0 1%;
  float: right;
}
#secondary .card-menu {
  display: none; 
  float:none;  /* necessary for IE */
}

Since it intuitively makes more sense to have the "main" card in the "primary" section, I would recommend that you:

• revert the layout back to what it was
• switch float:left and float:right in the *css card.

The different functionality is just because of the line in the CSS about "#secondary .card-menu", which is there because in most layouts the card menu is too scrunched to show on the sidebar.

note: we'll soon be moving all of this to skins. should make things a lot easier :)

how do I find the "built-in" CSS? what is the name of the card? it is not on *css

The built-in css is currently hard-coded. Because of the way CSS works, you can override all of the built-in settings in the *css card, but you can't edit the built-in stuff directly. As we move to skins, all of the CSS will be card accessible.

 

You can see the built-in css by going to http://wagn.wikirate.org/assets/application-all.css, but it's not very readable in this form.

 

If you're tweaking this kind of CSS, I would highly recommend using browser extensions. Chrome has good CSS support builtin. With firefox I have enjoyed using Firebug and Chris Pederick's "Web Developer".
