Remove Left Sidebar for Full Width Content Home

[schnubbu]

Aloha!

I would like to understand how to remove the left sidebar from my homepage. I'm confused because I keep choosing the full width layout option in the theme settings and on the home page editor. ALL my other pages have taken the change - just not the home page. Is there something I am missing?

Please help! Thank you!

Is your theme using a custom template for the homepage? (Look for a home.php or front-page.php in your child theme folder.) If so, the template may be forcing the layout, which will override anything in the page or theme settings.

Thank you! Yes, it is using a child theme! What is the step to stop the forcing of the particular layout? Do you need to see some code?

[nutsandbolts]

Yes, if your theme includes a home.php or front-page.php, please paste its contents into a reply and I'll be glad to take a look.

I am so grateful to you! There are two pages and I"m not sure which one you might need:

This is the landing page template

<?php
/*
Template Name: Landing
*/

Remove header, navigation, breadcrumbs, footer, footer widgets
remove_action( 'genesis_header', 'genesis_header_markup_open', 5 );
remove_action( 'genesis_header', 'genesis_do_header' );
remove_action( 'genesis_header', 'genesis_header_markup_close', 15 );
remove_action( 'genesis_before_header', 'genesis_do_nav' );
remove_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'genesis_do_nav' );
remove_action( 'genesis_before_header', 'genesis_do_subnav' );
remove_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'genesis_do_subnav' );
remove_action( 'genesis_before_loop', 'genesis_do_breadcrumbs' );
remove_action( 'genesis_footer', 'genesis_footer_markup_open', 5 );
remove_action( 'genesis_footer', 'genesis_do_footer' );
remove_action( 'genesis_footer', 'genesis_footer_markup_close', 15 );

genesis();

And this is the frontpage.php

<?php
/**
* Build the basic structural wrap for the EZ Static Homepage.
*
* @package Dynamik
*/

get_header();
?>
<div id="home-hook-wrap" class="clearfix">
<?php do_action( 'dynamik_hook_home' ); ?>
</div><!-- end #home-hook-wrap -->
<?php
get_footer();

//end front-page.php

Okay, I see now that you're using Dynamik. It has different rules/processes than the average Genesis child theme, so you'll probably need to seek support via Cobalt Apps directly: http://cobaltapps.com/

No easy fix? Boo 🙂

I am grateful though, that you had a look! Thank you so much!

[nutsandbolts]

Actually it's probably a really easy fix, but since Dynamik is a third party product, it's always better to seek support directly from their development team so we don't tell you the wrong thing to do. I'm sure they'll be able to solve the mystery in no time!

Thank you! I had no idea I was even using that product 🙂
