Menu
Let me preface this by saying I am relatively new to bootstrap and possibly not udnerstanding the row/column layouts properly.
The layout I am working on can be seen here: http://jsfiddle.net/5NFXY/ (code pasted below)
The 'sidebar' on the right is where the problem is occurring. I have a .col-md-9 and a .col-md-3 enclosed withing a .row, but for some reason the right side of the sidebar is not lining up properly with its container. After playing around with this for quite some time I have found that if I remove margin-right: -15px; from the .row the problem goes away, but surely this isn't' the proper solution and I have mucked something up along the way. My question is, have I done something wrong in my HTML or is the proper solution really to manually override that margin-right: -15px;?

You can use calculated width/margins., no change to your HTML necessary. E.g. the width of col-md-3 is 100/4=25%. Therefore you can reduce this, say to 20%, and allocate the remaing 5% to your margins.
You can adjust margins on the column contents using the margin utils such as ml-0 (margin-left:0), mr-0 (margin-right:0), mx-1 (. 25rem left & right margins), etc... Or, you can adjust padding on the columns (col-*) using the padding utils such as pl-0 (padding-left:0), pr-0 (padding-right:0), px-2 (.
row doesn't have the extra margins and padding that a col-md-12 would bring and also discounts the space that a column would introduce with negative left & right margins. if you really wanted to remove the padding/margins, add a class to filter out the margins/paddings for each child column.
l - sets margin-left or padding-left. r - sets margin-right or padding-right. x - sets both padding-left and padding-right or margin-left and margin-right. y - sets both padding-top and padding-bottom or margin-top and margin-bottom.
You've combined your custom class wrath-content-box with the bootstrap col-md-3 class and the padding on your class is overriding the Bootsrap grid padding.
You just need to put your class in a separate <div> inside the bootstrap one like you did in the first column.
