Removing Sidebars to widen the Margins of main body/text

Are you trying to get a full width page with no sidebars at all?

Yes exactly. I’m hoping that will allow for wider margins on either side when adding content to the body of a page. Thank you!

Any thoughts? I really need some help on this. Here’s my site so you can see what I’m talking about:

I’m trying to eliminate all of that black space on the left and right and expand the margins of the text in the body.

Thank you!

look for line 1022 in the style.css, it will look like this

.site-content .entry-header, .site-content .entry-content, .site-content .entry-summary, .site-content .entry-meta, .page-content {
    margin: 0 auto;
    max-width: 800px;
}

you can change the max-width to whatever you desire.

it is not recommended to edit the default theme Twenty Fourteen directly.
strongly consider to create a child theme for the customization; or use a custom CSS plugin if the changes are only to the formatting.
