remove sidebar in category pages

Hi,
This post by Nicolas is a good place to start.

Thanks Menaka for your support!

Unfortunately I do not understand which code I have to put to delete the sidebar from categories.

But it’s my fault not understand programming ??

Thank you!

Hi,
Add this to you child theme’s functions.php and modify to suit your needs.

add_filter('tc_global_layout', 'my_custom_layout' );

function my_custom_layout( $layout ) {

    $my_layout_for_categories      = array(
        'r' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
        'l' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
        'b' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
        'f' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
    );

    if ( is_category() ) {
        $my_layout = $my_layout_for_categories;
    } 

    //sets new values for content and sidebar (checks if there are new values to set first)
    foreach ($layout as $key => $value) {
        $layout[$key]['content']   = isset( $my_layout[$key]['content']) ? $my_layout[$key]['content'] : $layout[$key]['content'];
        $layout[$key]['sidebar']   = isset( $my_layout[$key]['sidebar']) ? $my_layout[$key]['sidebar'] : $layout[$key]['sidebar'];
    }

    return $layout;
}

Hi Menaka, thanks for you support.

I put the code works almost well, the sidebar is gone ?? but I get two problems:
1. A strip shown in media hides the contents:
https://prnt.sc/c9fajs

2. The content previously appeared in the sidebar is now displayed at the end of the page’s content ?? I do not want to appear:
https://prnt.sc/c9faue

Eliminating the line:
$layout[$key]['sidebar'] = isset( $my_layout[$key]['sidebar']) ? $my_layout[$key]['sidebar'] : $layout[$key]['sidebar'];

Fixed so the range shown in the middle (1) ??

Would fail to fix the point 2 and then it works perfectly

Hi,
So, have your solved the issue? Or is there any issue still?

Hi, there is an issue to solved.
The content displayed on the sidebar now appears at the end of the category page:
https://prnt.sc/c9faue

Hi,
I do not see this behaviour in my local environment.
Can you show what your settings for layout are (in the customiser panel)?

Hi Menaka,

Thanks for the support and apologies for the delay in responding, I spent a few days away and I had not internet access.

With the code:

add_filter('tc_global_layout', 'my_custom_layout' );
function my_custom_layout( $layout ) {

    $my_layout_for_categories      = array(
        'r' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
        'l' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
        'b' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
        'f' => array ('content' => 'span12' , 'sidebar' => false),
    );

    if ( is_category() ) {
        $my_layout = $my_layout_for_categories;
    } 

    //sets new values for content and sidebar (checks if there are new values to set first)
    foreach ($layout as $key => $value) {
        $layout[$key]['content']   = isset( $my_layout[$key]['content']) ? $my_layout[$key]['content'] : $layout[$key]['content'];
    }

    return $layout;
}

The sidebar disappears but its content is now displayed at the bottom of the page. Quoting an image where you can see an example and know a url where this happens:

Hi,
Anything about it know?
Can you solve?

Thanks

Hi,
Please post your site url. It might be a case of an unclosed html div. To check what went wrong, I need the url.

Hi Menaka, thanks for the support.

Here a page where this happens:

Thanks

Anything known? It can be fixed?

Thanks

Hi,
Add this as well to your child theme’s functions.php

add_filter('tc_sidebar_display','my_sidebar_display');
function my_sidebar_display($content) {
  if(is_category()){
	return null;
  }
  return $content;
}

It works! You’re a genius, many thank you very much!

Glad ??
Can you mark this post as resolved?
