I want to change the width for one specific page, that is the static homepage (page_id = 2). If I modify the parent theme’s style.css it’ll change the width of every page.

My expertise is not actually in theming, and that website is under construction.

Nevermind, (I think) this is solved. Created a footer-blank.php and a page-‘id’.php and made the page-‘id’.php load the custom footer-blank.php instead of the theme’s footer-main.php

The footer-blank.php looks like this:

<div id="secondary" class="sidebar-container" role="complementary"></div>

And it pretty much did it. You can check my site’s homepage now: https://rohitpalit.com

The page containing the blog posts (https://rohitpalit.com/blog/) is showing the theme’s default footer.

The sidebar width, I set it myself. The theme is heavily modified by me. The sidebar width is around 230px AFAIK.

No, as long the database remains intact.

On a side note, is the text on my blog hard to read because of the white-on-blue setup?

[No bumping, thank you.]

I think a wordpress re-install would fix the issue as it’ll also update the .htaccess. Try re-installing from dashboard.

Are you using any custom plugins which may have any effect on permalinks?
