You'll need to remove the sidebar call from https://github.com/devinsays/portfolio-press/blob/master/single-portfolio.php, and then update the css to display the content area full width.

I am trying to get a full width from a portfolio post. And creating a blank text widget does not eliminate the sidebar, it just makes the area blank. Ideally I would like to create a portfolio post for a YouTube video that can be displayed as large as possible. With the sidebar I can only use the 640 wide YouTube embeds. I know I can create a page with the full-width portfolio template that will display the YouTube video at 960, but because there is no "featured image" option when making a page I have no way of using a thumbnail for the video that will show up with my other thumbs in the grid on my home page. So right now it seems like I'll have to create a portfolio post for the featured image (thumbnail) and a separate page for the full-width video embed, then use a Redirection plugin to force the portfolio post to go to the page post. Or I can just remove the sidebar code from one of the php files, in this case I'm guessing "content-portfolio.php"? Do you have any thoughts on this? Am I missing another much easier way to accomplish what I want? Devin, your suggestion about using the “Full width portfolio” template would only work when creating a page.

That's unattractive but not so bad under the sidebar, because you can still see the text--but it's a problem under the menus because you can see the menu titles. How would I fix this? Thanks!

Thank you for creating and making it available! My question is this: can you describe how to change the single post layout so that no sidebar is shown? Right now my sidebar widget is empty but the pages still show the "Archives" and "Meta" menus, by default I assume. When someone clicks on one of my portfolio thumbs I would like to take them to a page where my photos display in the full width of the theme without a sidebar. I'll use the Footer for any items I would normally place in the sidebar. I assume this change can be made by editing the single post php file but I'm not sure how to do it so I thought I'd ask.
