Single page full width layout not working

[jonbrantingham]

I am currently using the Learndash LMS plugin to have a membership site.

I am using custom page templates for my course pages. The template is supposed to force the full-width genesis layout. It seems to be working for two course pages, but not for the third.

It is not working for this page: http://www.artofcomposing.com/courses/music-composition-101

It is working for this page: http://www.artofcomposing.com/courses/music-composition-201-sonata-form

The theme is set to have full width as the default, and I can't seem to find any other settings in my theme that would not force the full-width

Here is the code for the page template:

<?php
/**
 * This file adds the Course Page template to the Art of Composing Theme 2015 Theme.
 *
 * @author StudioPress
 * @package Art of Composing Theme 2015 Theme
 * @subpackage Customizations
 */

/*
Template Name: Courses
*/

//* Force full-width-content layout setting
add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_full_width_content' );

/** Remove default sidebar */
remove_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'genesis_do_sidebar' );

//* Hook sticky message before site header
remove_action( 'genesis_before', 'aoc_sticky_message' );
add_action( 'genesis_before', 'aoc_course_sticky_message' );
function aoc_course_sticky_message() {

	genesis_widget_area( 'course-sticky-message', array(
		'before' => '<div id="course-sticky-message" class="sticky-message">',
		'after'  => '</div>',
	) );

}

//* Add landing body class to the head
add_filter( 'body_class', 'aoc_add_body_class' );
function aoc_add_body_class( $classes ) {

	$classes[] = 'learndash_course_page';
	return $classes;

}

function learndash_custom_breadcrumbs() {
    echo '<div id="breadcrumbs">' . learndash_breadcrumbs() . '</div>';
};

//* Modify the comment link text in comments
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
function sp_post_info_filter( $post_info ) {
	return '[post_comments zero="Leave a Review" one="1 Review" more="% Reviews"]';
}

//* Remove breadcrumbs
remove_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'genesis_do_breadcrumbs' );
add_action('genesis_after_header', 'learndash_custom_breadcrumbs');

//* Remove the entry title (requires HTML5 theme support)
//*remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_do_post_title' );
//*add_action( 'genesis_before_content', 'genesis_do_post_title' );

//* Remove meta info for page
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_post_meta' );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );

//* Remove the author box on single posts HTML5 Themes
remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_do_author_box_single', 8 );

//* Remove the post meta function
remove_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_meta' );

//* Run the Genesis loop
genesis();

I'm thinking because it's a post see: https://gist.github.com/braddalton/5547550.

I see that you've worked it out. Mind sharing what was going on?

That code from github didn't seem to fix it.

I haven't actually worked it out. The problem that I face, is that only one page seems to have the wrong layout. Every other course page has the correct full width layout. I can delete the page, because it has a bunch of other lessons attached directly to it.

I just can't figure out why.

That particular page/post layout settings are full width as well (set on the page itself, not globally). I've never had this happen unless I've ticked a different layout for a specific post or page, which I think over rides the force behavior though I haven't thoroughly checked this.

I still haven't been able to figure out why it's not working. Does anyone have any other ideas for fixing the formatting on the page.

Setting it in the template isn't changing it for some reason.
Because it's a custom post type, there is no option to set it in the editor.
Changing the default for the theme doesn't work either.
And it's not set as the default in functions.php.

Help...

Hi! I'm totally new to this community so I may be way off base helping here, but... if it's only that one page that's causing the problem, why not duplicate it? Make sure the new copy is working correctly, then delete the old one and rename the slug on the new one to match the old one? Then all of your links should work if you're using rewriting on your site links? I've had pages just get totally 'stuck' before for unexplained reasons and this trick usually worked for me. It's possible the comments might get lost, though. I've never tried it with comments. (Obviously make a backup of your db first before testing this)

Another thought that's occurred to me is, have you made sure the sidebar is completely turned off? You said you looked everywhere to force full width, but could there be some sidebar setting that's still overriding that? Just some thoughts. As I'm a total noob to Genesis as of last night, I can't think of much else beyond that.

[jonbrantingham]

I'll look into a way to delete it without messing things up but it is a last resort. It is a "course" post type, so it has a lot of sub-pages, as lessons and topics. I am not sure what will happen if I delete it, and try to reassign those pages. As a membership site, it could be disastrous.

I'll still keep poking around though.

[jonbrantingham]

Just in case anyone wants to know, the only way I was able to figure out how to change the page template was in myPHPadmin. I found the data in the postmeta table. It was a meta tag called "_genesis_layout". I changed it from "content-sidebar" to "full-width-content".

I am not sure why I was unable to change it directly from the page template, but it works now.
