Esmi. I’m assuming you went offline last night. I’m hoping you are around today and have the time to help me out.

yes, made a twentytwelve-child but misread the instructions and threw in the entire css file and stated editing massively so to late now. I’ll be hating life come upgrade time lol.

Aditya you are thee ******* MAN! Have been pulling me freaking hair out over this for two days.

For those that find this searching and I know there will be plenty as I’ve seen a lot of posts via searching on this very subject Aditya’s last post did the trick. Made the content go full width on post pages.

BUT it left the sidebar which showed under the content. To remove the sidebar completely you must do the for mentioned as in this example

in single.php at bottom you will find this

</div><!-- #content -->
	</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

remove the <?php get_sidebar(); ?> so that you have this

</div><!-- #content -->
	</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Once again many thanks to Aditya who took the time to help out a poor nob.

Hey Aditya many, many, many thanks for the help but no dice. It may well have gotten rid of the sidebar but that had already been done on single.php by removing
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
The question now is how to get the content to go full width. Right now it keeps the content on the left 2/3 of the page as if the sidebar was still there. Here is the single.php code from twenty twelve so you don’t have to look it up. (minus the <?php get_sidebar(); ?>)

<?php
/**
 * The Template for displaying all single posts.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Twenty_Twelve
 * @since Twenty Twelve 1.0
 */

get_header(); ?>

	<div id="primary" class="site-content">
		<div id="content" role="main">

			<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

				<?php get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() ); ?>

				<nav class="nav-single">
					<h3 class="assistive-text"><?php _e( 'Post navigation', 'twentytwelve' ); ?></h3>
					<span class="nav-previous"><?php previous_post_link( '%link', '<span class="meta-nav">' . _x( '&larr;', 'Previous post link', 'twentytwelve' ) . '</span> %title' ); ?></span>
					<span class="nav-next"><?php next_post_link( '%link', '%title <span class="meta-nav">' . _x( '&rarr;', 'Next post link', 'twentytwelve' ) . '</span>' ); ?></span>
				</nav><!-- .nav-single -->

				<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>

			<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>

		</div><!-- #content -->
	</div><!-- #primary -->

<?php get_footer(); ?>

I have read that creating a functions.php for my child theme (twentytwelve-child) that reads “Something like this” would solve the problem.

add_filter(‘body_class’,’twentytwelvechild_body_classes’,20);
function twentytwelvechild_body_classes( $classes ) {

if ( is_category() || is_single() )
$classes[] = ‘full-width’;

return $classes;
}

However all it gets me is this across the top of my page.

add_filter(‘body_class’,’twentytwelvechild_body_classes’,20); function twentytwelvechild_body_classes( $classes ) { if ( is_category() || is_single() ) $classes[] = ‘full-width’; return $classes; }

Is there something else I need to include in this file? Or is the wording/coding not exactly like it should be as I suspect from the “Something like this” My knowledge of html is pretty decent, css I’m just learning and php very little. Any help would be a God send as I’m literally pulling out my hair over this.

[No bumping. If it’s that urgent, consider hiring someone.]

but just in case let’s make sure I did it right

/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
define(‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true);
require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’);

done, now what?
sorry, not really script savvy lol
