   I'm trying to remove one or both of my sidebars for this page:

   http://franklincountypatriots.org/forum/

   Of course, I want to leave the sidebars for all of the other pages on the site. What is the best way to go about doing this? Thanks

   The best way to go about this would be to create a custom template for your forum page. See more detailed explanation here:

   I have removed the sidebar from my page but now need to get rid of the whitespace that was there. How would I do that? Here is the code on my custom page template (without sidebar):
   <?php
   /*
   Template Name: Snarfer
   */
   ?>

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   <div class="art-contentLayout">
   <div class="art-content">

   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   <div class="art-Post">
   <div class="art-Post-body">
   <div class="art-Post-inner art-article">
   <h2 class="art-PostHeaderIcon-wrapper">
   <span class="art-PostHeader">" rel="bookmark" title="<?php printf(__('Permanent Link to %s', 'kubrick'), the_title_attribute('echo=0')); ?>">
   <?php the_title(); ?>
   </span>
   </h2>
   <?php $icons = array(); ?>
   <?php if (!is_page()): ?><?php ob_start(); ?><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostDateIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="" />
   <?php the_time(__('F jS, Y', 'kubrick')) ?>
   <?php $icons[] = ob_get_clean(); ?><?php endif; ?><?php if (!is_page()): ?><?php ob_start(); ?><?php _e('Author', 'kubrick'); ?>: "><?php the_author() ?>
   <?php $icons[] = ob_get_clean(); ?><?php endif; ?><?php if (current_user_can('edit_post', $post->ID)): ?><?php ob_start(); ?><?php edit_post_link(__('Edit', 'kubrick'), ''); ?>
   <?php $icons[] = ob_get_clean(); ?><?php endif; ?><?php if (0 != count($icons)): ?>
   <div class="art-PostHeaderIcons art-metadata-icons">
   <?php echo implode(' | ', $icons); ?>

   </div>
   <?php endif; ?>
   <div class="art-PostContent">
   <?php if (is_search()) the_excerpt(); else the_content(__('Read the rest of this entry »', 'kubrick')); ?>

   </div>
   <div class="cleared"></div>
   <?php $icons = array(); ?>
   <?php if (!is_page()): ?><?php ob_start(); ?><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostCategoryIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="" />
   <?php printf(__('Posted in %s', 'kubrick'), get_the_category_list(', ')); ?>
   <?php $icons[] = ob_get_clean(); ?><?php endif; ?><?php if (!is_page() && get_the_tags()): ?><?php ob_start(); ?><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostTagIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="" />
   <?php the_tags(__('Tags:', 'kubrick') . ' ', ', ', ' '); ?>
   <?php $icons[] = ob_get_clean(); ?><?php endif; ?><?php if (!is_page() && !is_single()): ?><?php ob_start(); ?><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/PostCommentsIcon.png" width="18" height="18" alt="" />
   <?php comments_popup_link(__('No Comments »', 'kubrick'), __('1 Comment »', 'kubrick'), __('% Comments »', 'kubrick'), '', __('Comments Closed', 'kubrick') ); ?>
   <?php $icons[] = ob_get_clean(); ?><?php endif; ?><?php if (0 != count($icons)): ?>
   <div class="art-PostFooterIcons art-metadata-icons">
   <?php echo implode(' | ', $icons); ?>

   </div>
   <?php endif; ?>

   </div>

   </div>
   </div>

   <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

   </div>
   </div>
   <div class="cleared"></div>

   <?php get_footer(); ?>
