Removing sidebar on non-standard page?

Hi shawngibson. There are several posts on the forum regarding problems with bbpress. If you can’t remove the sidebar using the Layout options on the forum page then bbpress is overriding the theme options. You could hide the sidebar and center the content on that page with css like this:

/* hide sidebar on forum page */
.forum-archive.col-2cr .s1 {
	display: none;
}
/* center content on forum page */
.forum-archive.col-2cr .main-inner {
	background: none;
	padding-left: 150px;
	padding-right: 150px;
}

Not sure how this would hold up under the responsive mode; you might need to work up some media queries to adjust the smaller screens.

That worked a charm, bdbrown. May I ask where the code in your theme would be for using a drop-down menu with the blog categories is? I’d like to study the code to see if I can do the same thing with the Forum categories.

Thanks,
Shawn

Just for clarification, I didn’t write this theme. It was written by Alexander Agnarson, who describes himself on his website as “a front-end guy from V?nersborg, Sweden”. Regarding the menu code, are you referring to the dropdown menus on the theme demo?

Ah cool. I’m referring to my page, where the blog categories are a dropdown, but the forums (bbPress) have no option for that. This link may not work for a while since I just transferred to SiteGround: Me

OK, so you must be referring to the sidebar. If you want to work on that please start a new topic since it’s a different question. Thanks.
