Hi there,

A lot of the output for the site is controlled by the theme. We (Event Espresso) basically just hooks in and injects the additional event details it needs to add in at certain points during the page load. Which, in short , meansthe sidebar is controlled by your theme.

With twentyseventeen you don’t get additional options to control where the sidebar should load so to do this ‘properly’ you would need custom templates specific for the EE event outputs which then does not output the sidebar.

Another option is CSS and I can give you some examples of using that.

This hides the sidebar on the event list:

.post-type-archive-espresso_events #secondary {
    display: none;
}

This sets the content to be 100% wide now that the sidebar is hidden:

.post-type-archive-espresso_events #primary {
    width: 100%!important;
}

Similar set up for the single events:

 {
    display: none;
}
.single-espresso_events #primary {
    width: 100%!important;
}

Those can be combined together into:

.single-espresso_events #secondary,
.post-type-archive-espresso_events #secondary {
    display:none;
}
.single-espresso_events #primary,
.post-type-archive-espresso_events #primary {
    width: 100%!important;
}

You add that to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS.

That should remove the sidebars for you.

It’s 100% of the current wrapper so should be fine.

Basically the same way it would be done if you have a full-width template to select within the theme 🙂

You’re most welcome.
