Thank you @ratishjain12 for creating this issue. We need to apply a Complexity and size labels to it. Please advise, how much development time (in hours) do you expect this issue to take, and do you have any specific recommendations or strategy you could share about how the change would be accomplished?

Hey @roslynwythe the strategy would be simply using position sticky for the big screen so when user scrolls the sidebar sticks to left, it wouldn't take many hours I can solve it within a day or so

@ratishjain12 I don't understand the need for the menu to stick to the left side of screen. All the pages on the site are center aligned. Did you mean that it should visible as the user scrolls? If you did mean that the page should left align, could you explain why you think that would benefit users?

I believe if we make the side nav/filters section sticky user would not have to scroll above everytime to choose filters , by making it fixed/sticky on the left user would not have to scroll @ExperimentsInHonesty
