Help with hiding metabox sidebar :(

    Hi there!

    I’ve been trying to hide the whole column at the left (see link) with no result. I want to show only the thumbnails (not the date, author, etc).

    I need help with that… I’ve been reading here and I came across with a solution which I can’t carry out. And that is changing the type of the gallery post from “Post” to “Page”-

    I don’t know how to do this. I don’t even know if I’m on the right way.

    Many thanks,
    Mauricio

    PS: I’m using the last Easyest Gallery version, and I had no problems with it.

  • If single-galleryfolder.php doen’t exist it takes the single.php.
    In your themes folder
    – modify the single.php
    – or if you need only for the gallery pages, than have a single-galleryfolder.php with the modified content

    ps: There is a nice picture in the WordPress codex:

    Hi klihelp. Thanks for your answer.

    This is what I’ve done:

    1) I’ve created single-gallery.php file.
    2) Copied exactly the same code from “single.php” to that file.

    The result: the gallery without any thumbnail.

    Then I deleted the single-gallery file and everything works fine. How could that be possible? The code is exactly the same in both files…

    Thanks!

    Get a single-galleryfolder.php copy from the plugin/themes/ directory into your theme directory and modify that one.

    Sorry but I can’t make it work.

    I’ve done what you said, but the plugin’s themes don’t match with the theme I’m using (Magazino), yet I’ve copied single-galleryfolder.php from each theme and none of them work in my theme.

    What I find odd is that without a single-galleryfolder.php the gallery works perfectly (in this case, the plugin uses the “single.php” from the theme directory, isn’t it?). Of course I can’t edit single.php because it will affect every entry, and I want to modify just the gallery.

    Now, I create the single-galleryfolder.php with the same content of single.php. So this should be the same that not having the single-galleryfolder.php, because their contents are the same. However, the result is everything displayed except for the thumbnails.

    I hope you understand what I’m saying.

    Many thanks for your time,
    Mauricio

    In your single-galleryfolder.php just put the important parts together,
    eg: everything from single.php and the part which outputs the thumbnails.

    The part which outputs the thumbnails should be in single.php too, right?

    This is my single.php file: https://pastebin.com/5vSTyvBK

    I think that the problem is in line 9 but I don’t know how to solve it.

    Thanks for your patience!

    Sorry, I can’t make it work. I’ve spent a lot of hours trying…

    I can’t understand why the images don’t appear when I copy the SAME code from single.php to simple-galleryfolder.php.

    I need help please :S
