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.

This is an easy fix that Devin explains on the main page for this theme: "Change: $query->set( ‘posts_per_page’, ’9′ ) in functions.php, and: ‘posts_per_page’ => 9, in content-portfolio.php." Just make sure you change it to multiples of 3. I changed mine to 30. As for your other question, changing the template to "full length portfolio" works for me. Do you have more than 3 portfolio items created? If less than 3 maybe that's why it doesn't look like its using the full length. In my case I have a different issue: if I change a page template back to "portfolio" it still shows full-width. I would have thought that the "portfolio" template option would give you a sidebar so I'm not sure I understand what the difference is between the "Full width portfolio" and "Portfolio" page templates. They seem to be doing the same thing for me. Helen, I can answer your question about the 9 posts.

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!
