 * Hi Guys,
 * I have been trawling high and low for the past two weeks, putting it on the back
   burner, bringing it out again to trawl through more of the internet to find out
   that i cant find a solution any where, so hopefully you guys will be able to 
   help?! i cant create a thread on the custom community site unless i pay (which
   i cant afford…)
 * What CC theme provides for side bars as standard:
    The ability to have a left
   side bar the ability to have a right side bar the ability to have both side bars
   the ability to have no side bars
 * what i want:
    the ability to have ONE page set up with both side bars, the rest
   of the pages to have Left only side bars.
 * issue:
    If i set the default side bars to both left and right, when nothing is
   assigned to show in the right side bar, it still shows. I have used other sites
   where i have not had this issue but cc happens to be the best theme ive used 
   up untill this point! If i set the default side bar to be left only, the right
   hand side bar just doesnt work and i cant then go into the pages and select the
   theme to be both left and right, it only allows me to set the page theme to be‘
   dafault’, ‘full width’ and ‘links’ (if im honest, im still unsure of the reason
   for links)
 * Could any body help me either create NEW themes, or change the ‘links’ theme 
   to be Left side bar only?
 * I was thinking if it was possible to have the ‘links’ as left side bar only then
   i could set that as a theme for all the other pages and have the default set 
   to both left and right.
    This would solve ALLLLL of my issues, but i cannot work
   out how to get it to work. I have played around with the CSS and PHP to my hearts
   concent and cannot work it out.
 * after looking on the CC theme forum i noticed alot of people who had ‘sidebar’
   related issues solved this with child themes, but this has made no difference
   to me =/ and if im completely honest, child themes confused me… im not new to
   web design by any means, but i am new to word press, could some one help or point
   me in the direction of help?
 * Thanks,
 * Andeh

 * you can fix this by editing the page, right hand side set the page template to
   right and left sidebars.
    this will over ride the default left only setting for
   only that page.
