Not sure weather I should start a new thread, but this question is related to the Nishita theme: I would like to hide the tags on each post, but still have them in the RSS feed. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Bisogno

Use the photoblog layout (left) and then remove all widgets from the sidebar and the sidebar will disappear from the site and you will have 1024px of width for images.

I just switched from the Enterprise theme to the Nishita theme so I can post image files up to 1024 pixels wide. The default Theme Option is with a right sidebar. In this configuration image files have a maximum width of 768 pixels wide. How can I get rid of the sidebar so I can go 1024 pixels wide?

Thanks,
Bisogno

I was wondering if it is possible to get rid of the sidebar completely so that my photos can expand into that area.

I guess I am just trying to activate the full width template, but not quite sure how.

I see you've already added this to hide the meta info on single posts and pages:

.meta {
	display:none;
}

That hides just the meta info part. If you were to add something to the Appearance → Widgets → "Sidebar" area, then that stuff would fall over and appear below the main content area and look out of place. You can choose to hide the sidebar area or just remember that if you put anything in it later, it will show up below the content area for posts and pages and you may need to readjust spacing at that point.

Here's an example of hiding all the right sidebar things and also expanding the content area to take up that space for Suburbia theme single posts and pages:

.meta,
.sidebar {
	display:none;
}

#single {
	width: 744px;
}

This is a slightly separate issue compared to the original post for this thread, so if you have further questions, please start a new thread. :)

Hello,
I am using the Suburbia theme as a photo blog. I just used the code to hide the meta data (thanks for the help all!) but was wondering if it is possible to get rid of the sidebar completely so that my photos can expand into that area. Right now my photos are being compressed.

Thanks in advance for any help.

The Custom Design upgrade is one of our paid upgrades, but it's worth it if you want to change things around and customize! :)

@dbancroft
Hello there,
Yes, the only way to "hide" anything on a WordPress.com blog theme is with a custom design upgrade and CSS editing. (I'm assuming your are referring to a WordPress.com blog as there is no blog linked to your username and you did not provide a link to one.)

dbancroft on "Removing Information/Shortlink/Navigation from Right Sidebar?"

dbancroft — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 22:21:47 +0000

So, the only way to hide this is to get an upgrade? I am loving this theme except for that one thing, and i can't afford the upgrade. Any advice?

designsimply — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 14:30:47 +0000

Yes, to leave just the information part of the meta in the Suburbia theme, you can selectively hide all the other parts. Here is an example:

.meta-shortlink,
.meta-navigation,
.edit-link{
	display: none;
}

Is there a way to change color/styling of the font of the main navigation menu on the left side?

It looks like you already figured out how to change the font family, size, and color for the main navigation in the Suburbia theme using this CSS:

#access li {
	font-family:Fertigo Pro;
	font-size:1.4em;
}

#access li a {
	color:#830000;
}

#access li a:hover {
	color:#666666;
}

Looks great!

Worked like a charm. As always, thanks so much.

Is there a way to just leave the information portion of the meta in there?

designsimply — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 19:38:41 +0000

To hide the entire post meta block from the top right of posts in the Suburbia theme, including the information, shortlink, and navigation sections, try this:

.meta {
    display: none;
}

Hi all,

Is there a way to remove the Information/Shortlink/Navigation boxes from the right sidebar of the Suburbia theme?

I already have purchased the upgrade, but I'm not where this is a CSS issue or not.

Thanks!

Suburbia in WordPress.com supports only four widget areas in the footer. The far left grid is reserved for page navigation which appears on index and archive view if they have more than one page. http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/help-with-the-new-suburbia-theme?replies=24#post-825065

Is there a way to add a right sidebar to the main page in the Suburbia theme? I know you can add it to post pages.

Help I can't figure out what to do. I currently use to Oulipo theme for my blog. I would like to add a photo/link to one of the sidebars that would lead folks to my book. Whenever I place the image widget on the sidebar, my archives and categories are no longer shown. Does this theme not support additional widgets?? HELP

On WordPress.com, you can use CSS to change the design of a page, but you cannot change the underlying PHP or HTML code and so you cannot change how the sidebars work for different pages. If you want more control to customize the theme code like that, you might consider switching to WordPress.org or sticking with the sidebar options that are available on WordPress.com.

Hi I'm using the structure theme on wordpress to create a portfolio of my work and would like to be able to have different content on each right sidebar of the different pages. The website is still not complete but I would like help on how to use html or css to solve this problem. Therefore, I need to have a right sidebar on each page and sub page of my website and the sidebar on each page will contain different info or an image. Can anyone help?

my blog is francescabianchi.com

Thanks!

Yes, you can hide that stuff on the single post page with the CSS upgrade. You can try the below using the CSS preview function (you might have to force refresh the preview page to see the change).

.post-nav {display: none; }

Hi!

I used the Ouilpo theme for my blog. I have added the widgets I want to the right sidebar : http://hochelagagoddamn.wordpress.com/

But when you go into a specific post the sidebar shows a different set of information: a where are you text and "meta info" : http://hochelagagoddamn.wordpress.com/2010/12/10/celebration-hivernale/

To get rid of these changes to the sidebar when viewing an individual post do I need to get the CSS update?

Thanks in advance!
