Remove sidebar from static front page (evolve theme)

  • Hi all,

    I am using the evolve theme and am trying to remove the sidebar from my static page on Live Science Tutors. I have tried to edit the the sidebar.php and a couple other things but nothing has worked. I am a little new at this. I guess I am still on the learning curve. Any help would be appreciated.

    Oh, I should probably add I am trying to minimize white space and make the visible area widespread/full size.

    Thanks

  • Have you looked for the <?php get_sidebar(); ?> call on the page template file? You can remove that from any page to have it not load the sidebar.

    Hi sorry for dropping off the face of the planet. I have found it in ‘blog-page-php’ but nowhere else (such as individual pages). Any advice? Thank you in advance.

    If you remove the <?php get_sidebar(); ?> from the page you find it on, does it remove it from the page you want to remove it from?

    It could be that what appears to be a sidebar is actually contained somewhere else (like in the footer). One thing you can do to find out is to right click the site and click “view source”. Find a div or something that is contained within the sidebar’s source code (ie <div class="sidebar-nav">) and then see if you can find that content in the template pages to track down exactly where the undesirable sidebar is being pulled from.
