  It has been realy frustrating. I have edited wordpress themes before and never had this type of problem. I feel like screaming because this isn’t my cup of tea. I thought I had put in the sweat already. Have you at wordpress considered a lighter, wordpress for dummies version. with themes uncluttered with random stuff the dummy doesen’t even understand. Thank you for the help and have a nice day :)

  Hi there, Suburbia comes with an optional full-width template, but only for pages, not for posts. You can select it in the Page Attributes box:

  To not display a sidebar on a post, you’d need to use some CSS trickery using the Custom Design upgrade. Which sidebar are you trying to hide – the right one or the left one? Let me know and I’ll try to help. :-)

  Hi! Thank you so much. I’m trying to get rid of the sidebar in posts that are on the right hand side. I have the custom Design upgrade.

  Again, thanks! I realy appreciate it :)

  To remove the right sidebar only on single blog posts and widen the main column, you can try adding this code under Appearance > Custom Design. Click the CSS tab and add this completely below the existing green comments:

  .single .meta, .single .sidebar {
  display: none;
  }
  
  .single #single {
  width: 725px;
  border: none;
  }

  Click Save when you’re done.

  If you need further CSS help, please feel free to post in our CSS Customization forum.
