I am trying to add a ribbon to the left of my page. I am using the great platform of word press. Specifically, the twenty-twelve template. I went into the code and edited under themes/twentytwelve/style.css
& themes/twentytwelve/header.php
. The problem is that it is showing on the right on just plain text. Css is not doing anything. Here is what i am trying to accomplish in wp theme: http://jsfiddle.net/H6rQ6/9448/
CSS for ribbon- themes/twentytwelve/style.css
