Remove Entry Content Issue

[Porter]

I'm trying to completely remove the genesis content area on a page, as I'm using before_genesis_entry for everything, and I don't want a blank section at the bottom. For whatever reason, this isn't working:

remove_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );

Does that remove just the content inside that area, or does it completely remove the div and section of the page? I want that entire area to be gone, not just what's inside it. I made a custom template, and all of the code is in a function with the "before_genesis_entry" hook, which you can see here. If you look at the bottom, there's an empty area, which appears to be the entry content, but empty. How do I remove this?

I ended up solving the issue, though I admit I don't entirely understand why it works. My approach was to remove the loop using:

remove_action ('genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop');

Then where I was adding my content before:

add_action( 'genesis_before_entry_content', 'custom_do_page_content', 9 );

I changed it to:

add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'custom_do_page_content', 9 );

The reason I added the content using a different hook was because anything using the entry content shared one giant background. When I added it to before_entry_content (typo in my above post), everything worked, but there was still an empty 1-line height area where the "content" was at the bottom. When I removed the loop, the entire mid section of the page disappeared (aside from the header and footer, not sure why), when I changed the hook to the loop, it removed the empty area at the bottom, and used my custom design.

I guess my confusion is in what "genesis_loop" is actually doing to the page structure. Judging by the way I just fixed this, that function seems to contain the entire div structure for the middle area of the page, aka "entry content". Is this the case? If someone could walk me through what exactly happens here, that would help me understand my solution, and future solutions.
