    I am on a free plan and using the theme Sela. I want to remove the content area on a static front page. I can’t see a way of doing this without CSS. I also want to hide a widget area if there is no text in there.

    If I need to change themes, please let me know which ones are good.

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

    Hi, @r13rose,

    Happy to assist.

    I am on a free plan and using the theme Sela.

    I took a look at sneekygeek.wordpress.com. I do not see the theme Sela on it. Is this the site you are working with or is it another?

    I am wondering if you already decided to switch themes(?).

    I want to remove the content area on a static front page. I can’t see a way of doing this without CSS.

    For Sela, you have different page options (Full width, Grid or Default)
    See Sela’s doc page for details on how to change that: https://wordpress.com/theme/sela/cmtestingweb.wordpress.com

    I also want to hide a widget area if there is no text in there.

    To remove a widget that has no text, you may do this at the widget level.

    If I need to change themes, please let me know which ones are good.

    Theme change is highly subjective. I recommend scrolling through them, and searching by the features that are most important to you: https://wordpress.com/themes

    If I misunderstood any (or all) of your request, please let me know. I hope this helps.
