Preventing a sidebar showing up on other pages

[LukeB 0]

Hi im looking to prevent my content sidebar from showing up on any pages other than the homepage. Under template setup the content sidebar is enabled in the posts page content area. Im currently using the following code to prevent the sidebars content showing up, but it would be much easier if i could just prevent the entire sidebar and not just individual content. body.page .tabberlive.style1{display:none} body.single .tabberlive.style1{display:none} body.archive .tabberlive.style1{display: none;} body.search-results .tabberlive.style1{display:none;} body.page #myGallery {display:none} body.single #myGallery {display:none} body.archive #myGallery {display: none;} body.search-results #myGallery {display:none;} Any assitance would be appreciated http://www.danceyrselfclean.com/ Regards Luke

Hi Luke. You can disable the content sidebar on any page you wish. Just visit the page and check the box on the right hand side in "PageLines Section Control" to disable the sidebar.

Thanks for the reply but is there a way to disable it on category pages as most of mine are categories.

It's possible to use CSS to hide them on category pages. [code]body.archive.category #myGallery {display:none;}[/code]

After using the CSS im still getting a small white space about a cm or 2 in height where the sidebar would normally be. Is there a way to completely get rid of this white space on the other pages where i dont want to sidebar

Do you have the "Hide Sidebars when empty" option checked? It's located in the PlatformPro Settings > Sidebar Options.

Yeah thats all checked. If you look at one of the category pages like New you can see a white space where the sidebar would be but ive just prevented the content from showing up in these pages.

You can also try the plugin Widget Logic which will can hide any widget on any page or type of page using wordpress conditionals: http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags

Im not sure that would work as ive already hidden the widgets with CSS, i just need to hide the sidebar itself to get rid of that horrible white space at the top of my pages where its been hidden

Hmmm... not sure I'm seeing the issue with the white space. [i]But[/i], you can use code similar to this to hide the sidebar: [code]#sidebar2{display:none;}[/code]
