Hbox not showing when set Bottom

ARTICLE AD BOX

I have 2 main nodes. One is the side menu which works perfectly and the function menu which is supposed to continue the bottom of the side menu to the end of the width of the screen. Somehow HBox isn't showing when set using bp.setBottom(hb). This is the code. (Sorry if its unorganized or unprofessional, I am new but I am willing to take tips if you have.) Thanks.
