[Resolved] Posts Page without Sidebar

[Judi]

Months ago, I posted in support about needing help with showing my posts on the posts page in a masonry style without sidebars. We weren’t able to resolve why it wasn’t working after a few attempts. I just discovered something that might help to find a solution.

If my page (called “blog”) is not set as “Posts page” in the Reading section of Settings, then it displays correctly. After setting my Blog page as the Posts page, it shows the sidebar. If I switch the Posts page to another page and then refresh my browser, it shows the Blog page in the masonry format with sidebars (which is the format that I desire).

I have screenshots available but don’t see a way to upload them.

Hi there,

Any chance you can link us to the site in question?

You can edit the original topic and use the private URL field.

Screenshots aren’t very useful sometimes but you can upload them using a service like this:

Let me know 🙂

I actually just did that before seeing your response. 🙂

This is an example of how I want my posts page to look.

Sorry I’m a little bit confused.

The link you provided is a page named Blog and it is currently the posts page with masonry and sidebar:

Isn’t that what you wanted? What am I missing?

Let me know 🙂

No, I actually DON’T want the sidebar to show as in this example:

Can you make sure the blog sidebar layout in the customizer is set to no sidebar?

PERFECT! I had not seen that option.

Thank you!!!

No problem 🙂
