Remove Sidebar from Home Page 4.3

I just recently updated to Artisteer 4.3 on my laptop. I know in the past I've been able to create a template that had no sidebar on pages I didn't want it on but that doesn't seem to be working anymore.

When I right click a page, such as the home page, and choose properties, I'm not seeing an option to remove the sidebar.

Also, when I choose a page and then choose to have one column under layout on that page, it changes ALL of the pages, not just that page.

Am I missing something or is this a glitch with 4.3? All I want to do is to remove the sidebar from the home page only.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Rose,

I just checked in Artisteer 4.3. You can add or remove sidebars as normal in artisteer.

When editing a page there is the option in the lower right to hide the sidebars.

Are you using templateer or another export plugin when exporting your themes> If so is the version you have compatible with the new Artisteer 4.3

Thanks for your responses, techtom!

I am not seeing that option. I'll look on my 4.2 version on my desktop this afternoon and see if it's different.

I am not using any export plugins. Checking out Templateer it might something worth looking into except that it doesn't look like Templateer is compatible with 4.3 yet.

Hi Rose,

Where are you setting the one column layout for your page? Ist this being done in artisteer or the wordpress admin area?

Rose,

You cannot remove the sidebars from just one page in Artisteer and you are correct when you set the one column layout it removes then on all pages.

You can set to one column layout while working on the page you do not want a sidebar on and then set it back to show a sidebar for your other pages. The sidebars will retain their settings. When you export just go into the page editor and disable the sidebar.
