You’ll probably need to modify the plugin product template file
single-tcp_product.php and archive-tcp_product.php
There’s 2 of each – Looks like you’re using TwentyEleven WordPress theme so probably only need to do these.
/wp-content/plugins/thecartpress/themes-templates/tcp-twentyeleven/single-tcp_product.php
/wp-content/plugins/thecartpress/themes-templates/tcp-twentyeleven/archive-tcp_product.php
The other 2 templates are in /wp-content/plugins/thecartpress/themes-templates/tcp-twentyten/
Look for this line of code:
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
and delete it completely (don’t leave a blank line before the next statement ?php get_footer….)
Near end of file (Line 26 in single-tcp_product.php – line 57 in archive-tcp_product.php)
Backup those files first though – just in case!!
You may need to do some CSS mods as well to fix content width
Hi, thanks! I do have 2011 but for some reason my files don’t show a separate twentyeleven (or any twentyten) folder in /wp-content/plugins/thecartpress/themes-templates/.
I did try this from what I have, but the sidebar still shows.
from this:
wp-content/plugins/thecartpress/themes-templates/tcp-single-product.php
deleted this bit of text:
<?php if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘sidebar-buying-area’ ) ) : ?>
<div class=”widget-area” role=”complementary”>
<?php dynamic_sidebar( ‘sidebar-buying-area’ ); ?>
</div><!– #secondary –>
<?php endif; ?>
and from:
wp-content/plugins/thecartpress/themes-templates/tcp-archive-product.php
deleted this bit of text:
<?php if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘sidebar-layered’ ) ) : ?>
<div class=”horizontal-layered”>
<?php dynamic_sidebar( ‘sidebar-layered’ ); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Apologies – those templates were removed from v 1.3.2 onwards – forgot I’m using one of the earlier 1.2.* versions on my live site – just had too many problems with the later releases.
Trying to find a solution on a testing site with the latest version…
I’ve tried setting the products etc to use an alternative template – all it does is report the other templates are missing and continues to use the default template.
Will see what I can figure out, and let you know
More info here:

Best option for now is to roll back the plugin to version 1.3 and not to update until this issue is fixed by the developer.

Hi, i know this is too late but it’s for ones who had same problem and couldn’t figured it out
all the help you need is on this page:
http://thecartpress.com/docs/design-and-layout/extended-template-hierarchy-for-thecartpress/
1- i copied page.php from my theme and renamed it to be: single-tcp_saleable.php (cause thecartpress search for specific templates, and when he find nothing he will write the content on page.php)so now we have created a template for him to put content on it rather than on page.php
2- then i put the content of this page: tcp-single-product.php (which is on theme templates on thecartpress plugin directory, and ut’s the page where single product detail is generated) between code of the new single-tcp_saleable.php page
3- so we have then single-tcp_saleable.php with code from page.php (to be able to put or hide the sidebar and footer)and code from tcp-single-product.php(the core code of product detail page)
when you refresh a product details page on your browser you will have it on the new template you just created, not anymore on page.php
hope this helps, cause i need it too, and this new method wasted me so much time, bit am so happy i figured it out
