    I just want to change the width of my home page.
    URL for the same is http://monetarysection.com
    I have disabled the primary sidebar for all of my pages by changing the visibility setting of every widget and now want to increase the width of my home page to full (including the area which is reserved for primary sidebar).
    I have gone through various answers for similar problem but could not find appropriate answer for myself.
    thanks in advance

    this is not sufficient to remove the sidebar html container.

    you could consider to create a custom page template where you remove the call of the sidebar, or use CSS to hide the empty sidebar container.

    in any case, do not edit any theme files directly – rather crate a child theme for the customization or use a ‘custom CSS’ plugin for formatting changes.

    example of a CSS quick fix (assuming you keep the static page as home page):

    .home .sidebar-primary-container { display: none; }
.home .main { width: 85%; }

    this will need fine tuning using @media queries for narrow browser screens.

    for further details, please post in the theme’s forum at https://wordpress.org/support/theme/ignite

    thanks @ alchymyth, will try to implement these changes.
    Although i have wasted a whole day to create a child theme but could not successful. every time when i install child theme, it shows a message related to missing style.css.
    i have considered every caution and have followed every step which are described in ignite knowledgebase.
    will try once again.
    thanks for our suggestions.
