How to get rid of unwanted text and links from main window (2 posts)

    I've made a beta version of a website for our subsidiary in the US. I used a two column theme called Unnamed.
    The prospective webmaster didn't want the right column to appear so I removded it in the settings of the theme. But when I did that the search window and all the links from the removed column appeared at the bottom of the main window instead.

    To make even more confusing these links appeared in swedish since I work in a swedish version of WordPress. It's the navigation from the header that appears at the bottom. Looks like this:

    How do I do to get rid of these suckers?

    The sidebar is still rendering (or trying to!), that is why you are getting all the stuff in your footer.

    If you want to get rid of the sidebar permanently then in every page template (index.php, single.php, page.php etc.) edit the code and look for the get_sidebar() function and delete it. You should now have full width pages.

    Remember, backup your files first in case you wish to revert.
