Hello!

I added the CSS:

#primary { width: 100%; }

to my website, http://www.commishcollege.com, to make the bbPress forums to fill the width of the page, however, I’d like my blog page specifically (www.commishcollege.com/blog) to still have the sidebar on the right. I adjust the page’s individual layout to ensure that it is sidebar right, however, as you can see, the sidebar is located below all the posts. Any way to move the sidebar back up on only the blog?

Thanks!

@jpbertram: You can just add the following CSS instead of #primary { width: 100%; } in your “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.bbpress #primary { width: 100%; }

Question 1: I have a similar issue to jpbertram. I amusing the latest version of Simple Catch Pro. I need to have a sidebar on the right. However, select right sidebar in the page edit page does not work. Irrespective of whether it is the blog template or the default template. The page is a News page with posts feeding it using the blog page template. See the image below to get an idea of my problem (I am still running the website locally prior to launch).

Question 2: How can I remove the “Blog Archive” heading from this News Page?

@donal.leader: Blog page template will take the archive sidebar or main sidebar and it take the settings from “Appearance => Theme Options => Layout Options”

To hide “Blog Archive” heading from this News Page, you can simply add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.page-header { display: none; }

Excellent! Thanks for the help. CSS did the job. And, I had a “Eureka moment” when I changed the default layout options.

Great support service.

Hello Sakin!

Another question stemming from this CSS change:

My regular content is now centered in within the body area of pages and posts. I’d like the text to extend end to end. Can you assist?

Best,

@jpbertram: Full Width layout is only there in Pro version of the theme.

Hi Sakin,

Upgrading our site to the pro theme today. How can we adjust to full layout? Is it in theme options?

@@jpbertram: Yes you have that option in Theme Options panel as well as for individual pages and posts editor.
