I’ve removed all the widgets from the Primary Sidebar of the Oxygen theme (http://wmninc.wordpress.com/), but the theme is still rendering a Categories and Archives widget in the left nav with essentially no content in them. Is there a way to fully remove the left nav so that the main content can utilize the left and center panels?

Thanks in advance!

Based on my reading of the Oxygen theme’s info page, I don’t think you can choose to have that widget area hidden in the basic setup.

You can hide it with CSS–if you have the Custom Design upgrade.

The following code removes the left widget column and moves your content over to fill the space.
```
#secondary{
    display:none;
}
.entry-content, .entry-title{
    margin-left: -40% !important;
}
```
Hope that helps!

@lizthefair – solid, I went ahead and purchased the Custom Design Upgrade and the code works… you rock!
