• I need my homepage to have a different layout than the other pages. I know it is possible. Just not sure how to do the coding.

    Do you have a static template file of the different layout and don’t you know how to set the homepage to this template?

    No, I dont know how to do the different layout for the other pages. Right now all the pages include 2 side bars. I only want the homepage to include sidebars and all other pages to have none.

    Do you know which theme you’re using?

    Yes, I bought it from templatemonster.com, template #25557 City Portal.
    The template files I have are:
    404 Template
    (404.php)
    Archives
    (archive.php)
    Popup Comments
    (comments-popup.php)
    Comments
    (comments.php)
    Footer
    (footer.php)
    Theme Functions
    (functions.php)
    Header
    (header.php)
    Main Index Template
    (index.php)
    Page Template
    (page.php)
    Search Results
    (search.php)
    Search Form
    (searchform.php)
    sidebar-1.php
    sidebar-2.php
    Single Post
    (single.php)
    slider.php
    Styles
    Stylesheet
    (style.css)

    Should I add another page tempalte for all other pages? So I can remove the sidebars. If I do that, will I have to write coding somewhere else so the template will know that the homepage will have 2 columns but the others will not have any?

    Your theme’s vendors should give you the answer; as to remove sidebars from other pages, I expect this option is available through your dashboard somewhere.

    We do not support commercial themes as you paid for support when you bought the theme. It is not our place to keep theme vendors in business.
