All I get is a blog post overlapping all other content, so there’s no menu or navigation viewing on a computer monitor. I thought WordPress-created themes worked “out of the box.” This one certainly doesn’t. * [WPyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) * (@wpyogi) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598116) * **@priehl** – Haven’t seen any other threads about the theme not working. The navigation is in the sidebar on a desktop or bigger laptop screen. Have you tried reintalling the theme? Just delete the one you have and then reinstall it from the Dashboard. * If you need additional help, please start a new thread [here](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/twentyfifteen#postform) since your question is unrelated to this thread. * Anonymous User 13704156 * (@anonymized-13704156) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598117) * [@wpyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) Thanks I tried reinstalling and it’s still a complete mess, on a large screen on any browser. * Sorry, I didn’t see how to navigate to Twenty Fifteen subject area. * [freshwater](https://wordpress.org/support/users/freshwater/) * (@freshwater) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598118) * [@wpyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) – thanks for the reply. is your answer the final answer, i mean really the only method to achieve a full width, same like wordpress.org front page? cause i looked at your links, i already do simple child themes stuff when someone posts a few lines of css to paste in. i have no ability to do stuff on the Custom_Page_Template link you posted. i’m not complaining to you, i appreciate you giving me the facts so i don’t waste time looking to do something i’m not capable of! LOL! * 1. i would need drop down box creation from within the 2015 theme or (and i think 100K wordpress users can do this) 2. give us some code to copy into the child theme. a. this gives you 4 horizontal sections b. this give you identical to wordpress.org … then we can go in and just change the colors and text… looking at Custom_Page_Template i wouldn’t even know where to start so i give up! LOL! * ps. 2015 is a Responsive theme as is 2014 which i use on 20 sites. why aren’t ALL the big corporations sites i go to are NOT Responsive themes? * thank you! * [WPyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) * (@wpyogi) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598120) * **@priehl** – here: [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/twentyfifteen#postform](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/twentyfifteen#postform) * **[@freshwater](https://wordpress.org/support/users/freshwater/)** – it will be pretty complicated to create a full-width template as you’ve described for twentyfifteen, yes :)! That much custom work is more than is usually available on these forums for free, but you could probably [hire someone](http://jobs.wordpress.net/) to do it for you. It’s also possible that someone will make a child theme with that option and make it available from the themes here but no way to promise that. * But really, there are so many other great themes available so it may make more sense for you to find one you like – no reason you have to use twentyfifteen. * [freshwater](https://wordpress.org/support/users/freshwater/) * (@freshwater) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598121) * [@wpyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) thank you! i just had some ‘conflicts’ with plugin on other themes i’ve tried so i try to stay with WP and 2014 was excellent but now new design is full width especially with larger monitors and tv’s connected to net. i could never hire anyone, i’d have to give up WP and i cannot because i love WP! * but 2 worlds are evolving, larger monitors/TVs with now cell phone use (tiny screens). i edited my post above and you didn’t see it so copy here. * ps. 2015 is a Responsive theme as is 2014 which i use on 20 sites. why aren’t ALL the big corporations’ sites i go to are NOT Responsive themes? why? are they behind? cause the WP responsive theme is perfect for large monitors/TVs and tiny cell phones, right? * pss. i don’t have one Post on any of my sites, i’m 100% Page sites. * [WPyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) * (@wpyogi) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598122) * LOL – yes, responsive themes/websites are definitely the way to go these days. And most current WP themes are nicely (functional and good-looking) responsive so that makes it easy for you to have a great site. * Certainly, I agree that if a big corporation’s site isn’t responsive, they should get with it! * [badusername](https://wordpress.org/support/users/badusername/) * (@badusername) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598274) * Overall I like 2015, but I think I’d prefer it if the left column was little less wide. How can I do that? I’ve look through the css file but don’t want to take a chance of messing the whole thing up if I’m not absolutely sure I know what to modify and how. * [WPyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) * (@wpyogi) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598286) * **[@badusername](https://wordpress.org/support/users/badusername/)** – if you are still looking for help with your question, please start a new thread here: * [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/twentyfifteen#postform](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/twentyfifteen#postform) * [Bikram](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webseos/) * (@webseos) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598297) * Full width is a requirement. May be he wants a splash page as home page with jquery full width banner sliders. Below that some pics and text. Probably this is pearwcz requirement, same as mine. Child theme is a good option. Or may be through the customize option of theme 2015. * I am planning to make a full width page for my site [http://www.webdesignershouse.com](http://www.webdesignershouse.com) * [Bikram](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webseos/) * (@webseos) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598298) * Child Theme is the best. I think WordPress may start guidelines on Child Theme development articles in CODEX for every version of their major theme release like 2010,2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. Just a thought. But it has heavy demand. * Bik Web Designers House. * [marvelslots](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marvelslots/) * (@marvelslots) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/full-width-page-15/#post-5598300) * It’s a bit of a shame that the default theme doesn’t have a full-width page template. Every theme should have that. Think about a 1-page website or a landing page – they would be most likely without a sidebar. * Interestingly Twenty Fourteen had a full width template, I don’t see why this was left out from the current one. Any ideas behind the consideration or it was just looked over perhaps?
