I can’t give you any specific info about a commercial theme that I can’t download and look at the code of the theme. If you want specific info, you’d have to contact the theme seller.
However, your page template should have a line of code like this that you can delete to remove the sidebar from that page:
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
Once you remove the sidebar, you can edit this bit of your stylesheet to make the main column full width:
#wrapper #content {
display:inline;
width:500px;
}
Change it to look like this:
#wrapper #content {
display:inline;
width:760px;
}
Thanks for replying JLeuze. The thing is I have emailed the creator of the theme three times with no response over a month, and sent him a direct facebook message with no response over the last week. I understand that publishing his code is bad for his business, but so is ignoring me.
Is there an alternate way to call the sidebar in PHP? Because I have checked every page of the code and cannot find reference to the sidebar except for the stylesheet that mentions the sidebar is terms of “wrapper” and margins and such, not actually calling it. I have also checked the footer and header, no dice.
Is it possible to just send you some code for you to take a look at? As I said, I have tried to contact the seller repeatedly.
That’s too bad, not a good way to run a business. I’m sure anyone reading this thread will think twice before buying any themes from that developer…
I wouldn’t worry to much about sharing a bit of the code. Sharing the whole theme without the author’s permission might have issues because of a different license on the JavaScript or images. But technically the PHP code of any WordPress theme or plugin is open source and can be freely shared.
If you want to email me your custom page template, I can tell you how the sidebar is being loaded so that you can remove it.
