Hey, I am trying to remove the sidebar but there are no widgets?
How do I best share images on this forum?
Hi there,
RE: Images - when using a sharing site like you have you just need to add the URL - i edited your original post to show that :)
You can remove sidebars in Customizer > Layout > Sidebars:

FYI: The search and archive widgets are added by WP by default when an empty sidebar is present.
Hey, sorry what I mean is, I want the side bars but I want it to be blank. No widgets. I cannot seem to remove the "search" or "archive" widget.
Whats the purpose of an empty sidebar ?
If thats what you need add a HTML Widget to the sidebar - and add a HTML comment to the content:
<!-- Empty Sidebar -->
The end goal is basically having the blog archive page with wide margins. When I take off the side bar it becomes almost full width.
I would suggest removing the sidebars and adjusting the content width using a Layout Element:

Nice. Thank you sir!
You're welcome
