Description

Research direction

Reproduce the issue at https://ijwwe.uwp.co.uk/article/id/380/ with a narrow viewport, then inspect the OLH theme styles for the article sidebar and the aside element with class="sticky is-anchored etc". Done means the sidebar remains correctly positioned while scrolling on medium screens without using the entire page height for its top offset.
