    I prefer the layout of the “last posts” front page over the static front page because I’ll have a homepage with a small amount of content.

    I’ve deactivated all the widgets, and would like to move the some elements on both the left side and the right sidebar.

    On the left I would like to hide:
    – the post related info: admin, comments.
    I would like to keep the date, ideally on the position of “admin”

    On the right I would like to have a custom sidebar and in order to do so I want to hide:
    – the info in the sidebar: archives, categories, recent comments.

    This way, I would have my body text nicely centered, and a custom sidebar on the right.

    Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks in advance!

    *Never mind the 2nd issue (right sidebar). I figured it out. ??

    Hi,

    Yes! It is possible to hide admin and comments in right sidebar.

    Here some instruction to hide your details.

    1. Use easy custom css plugin and write some css code in custom css code plugin block.

    .admin-icon { display: none; }
    .blog-comment-icon { display: none; }

    2. Go to widget admin section drag and drop your custom widget in sidebar area.

    Thanks

    Perfect! Worked like a charm ??

    I’ve decided to hide all three elements. I was wondering how I can still keep the grey line in order to avoid a complete blank part on the left.

    In order words, how can I show just one line “border-bottom: 1px solid #DEDEDE;” while hiding the rest?

    Thanks again.

    In addition to the info above. I just noticed that I can only add a certain amount of words to my homepage. All the words are placed straight after each other without the possibility to break them up into different paragraphs.

    The text gets cut off and replace with a read more link.

    How can I solve this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi James_DG,

    Can you provide us your website URL.We’ll look it.

    On which page of your website you want to add more text.

    Thanks

    hi Vihorp i am interested to know which file i need to change the code to none so that they do not show up… I like to know the php file to edit as i prefer to hard code rather than use easy css.

    also what is the code i need to enter to remove the post date in LH side of screen.

    also is if possibile to widen the screen so the center area will be larger by removing the Left hand area all together

    Thanks for your help.

    HI agruenke,

    To make the above changes you have to remove some block of code from two files. These are single.php and page.php

    Go to your theme directory
    Open file page.php
    Now go to line no 20 and find the code "<div class="span3" id="blog-post-icons">"
    Remove the code from Line No 20 to Line no 26 .
    Save the changes in the file.

    Perform similar action in File single.php . and save It.

    Thank’s
