Dates & Removing Multi-column sidebar

    Greetings all,

    How does one:

    A. Change the date format to something like: DD MM YYYY ?
    B. Remove the side-by-side arrangement of the side bar in, I think, the west_sidebar?

    It appears that no matter how the widgets are arranged, there are two elements (columns if you will) in the side bar that force the width to be rather wide. As well, we just don’t really want two elements side by side.

    Overall a nice theme, but could use a bit more in the configuration options department.

    Cheers.

    Try using the following to display your date:

    <?php the_date(‘d M Y’); ?>

    As for removing the side by side sidebar this will involve editing your index.php and/or sidebar.php file as well as your css.

    It might be easier to just pick a theme with only one sidebar.

    If you’re comfortable with PHP/Hmtl and Css and want to do the coding, then maybe send us a link to the site and we can provide specific details.

    Thanks. A subsequent post:

    provided a ‘clean’ sidebar PHP page that works to align the right sidebar in a single column. I found it to be a good start.

    Now the challenge is to reduce the width of the single column, the subject of another post I just made. Mostly working, with the exception of the .gif image.
