    Hello,

    My website is http://www.olifephotography.com. The text under the slider was entered using left and right sidebars.

    I’d like to be able to edit the entire area under the slider as one area instead of split into left and right sidebars. Would the top sidebar be good for doing that? If so, how do I make the space the width of the area under the slider.

    Is there another widget that would be good for homepage editing in that space?

    @svoelker: The Catch Mustang homepage layout has different sidebars and you have used right and left sidebars which will divide into two.

    If you user Homepage Top Sidebar, it will take only 25% each widgets and layout is for 4 columns.

    But if you want single full width content below your slider, then you don’t need to user the widgets. You can use Static Front page.
    1. Create a page for your homepage from “Pages => Add New”.
    2. Go to “Settings => Reading”, and select the page you created in “Front page”.
    3. Go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Homepage Options => Homepage/Frontpage Settings” and click on “Enable Latest Posts or Page”
    4. Then you can disable the sidebar that you don’t want from “Appearance => Theme Options => Homepage Slier Options”

    Thanks Sakin. I was going to implement that solution the first go around but the word “Home” and author info date etc. are now showing under the slider above the h1.

    That info is not showing on my other pages. Is there a way to remove that info snippet from under the slider?

    I’d like my h1 to be the first thing seen in that location.

    @svoelker: You can hide that by adding in the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
    .home.page .entry-header { display: none; }
