  Hy,

  I am using oxygen theme. I want to have the slider post in my front page. But just the slider nothing more.

  Anyone knows if it is possible to make the slider as a “full width” page? because from what i have understood, the slider only appears if i define the page as a showcase page. If i do that, i will have the categories and archives on my left side, blogrool etc on my right side.

  I only want a front page with a slider once this is supposed to be a website and not a blog.

  Thanks a lot

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

  You can either have a Home page that displays your posts or a static front page ie. Showcase template that does not. http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/#setting-up-a-static-front-page

  Showcase page template
  When you first activate Oxygen, you’ll see your posts in a traditional blog format but if you’d like to showcase your content in an online magazine-like fashion, then you can use the Showcase Page template. … http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/oxygen/

  If you placean enpty text widget in the top of the sidebare, click to open, enter nothing at all, click “save” and click “close” that will eliminate the display of widgets in the sidebar.
