  Hi there,

  Sorry to trouble you with this. I’ve tried to make the changes myself but am having no luck.

  Essentially, I want to completely remove the left hand side column on my home page only.

  I know how to do this for the entire site but actually want to keep the margin and comments/dates/categories headings for all other pages and posts.

  Is it possible to have a different set up for the static page? I know this could mean I will lose the comment I’ve made on the home page and that is not a problem.

  Many thanks in advance and apologies again for hassling you.

  Kind regards

  Sean

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can target specific WordPress.com blog pages with CSS using body classes like “.home”

  Here is an example that will work for the home page of the Chunk theme:

  .home .entry-meta {
  	display: none;
  }
  .home #contents {
  	margin-left: 0;
  	border-left: none;
  }
