    I am using a child theme. I want the sidebar gone on the single post page.
    I am guessing…
    I need to, I think, make a copy of the php file in the parent theme.
    Then put that copy with child theme.
    And delete a line of code.

    1). This is the end of the code for a single post page. I want the sidebar gone. Can I just delete <?php get_sidebar(); ?> ?

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

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

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    2). Where do I put the copy of the php file for the child theme?

    Thank you

    <div class="entry-content" itemprop="articleBody">
   DELETE START HERE--> <?php
	if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.
  	the_post_thumbnail('full', array('itemprop' => 'image'));}
	?> <----DELETE END HERE
		<?php the_content(); ?>
		<?php
			wp_link_pages( array(
				'before' => '<div class="page-links">' . __( 'Pages:', 'base' ),
				'after'  => '</div>',
			) );
		?>
	</div>

    Can I delete from “DELETE START HERE–>” to “<—-DELETE END HERE” to remove the featured image from the single post page?

    Thank you

    ——-And I still don’t know where to put the copied parent files into the child theme.

    I deleted in the parent theme and it worked.

    Now to get it to the child theme.

    The plugin can dupe php theme files to child theme!
