Hi Donald, that can be done. See this tutorial:
https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/16aac08f099d7c154f04
In step 5, be sure to use a theme template that has no sidebar. The file might be named page-fullwidth.php or page-no-sidebar.php or something similar.
If you use a file without a sidebar, then no sidebar will appear on the single event page.
Thanks

Lorenzo,
Thanks for the quick response. I’m at least hopeful at this point although my recent attempt at following the instructions did not end the way I expected. I’m clearly missing something here since the instructions seem pretty straightforward … 1) grab the espresso_arabica_2014 files … copy page.php to archive-espresso_events.php and single-espress_evetns.php and then make an edit to a single line in each file … upload files to existing theme directory. That’s my shortened version.
Nothing disastrous happened except that my single event page content and sidebar have gone missing. I can remove the 18 espresso files from my theme directory and everything goes back to the way it was … but when I put the espresso_arabica files back in the theme directory … the content and sidebar disappears.
It may be some simple syntax error … can you look at my edits below and let me know if these look okay?
single-espresso_events.php —
<div class=”article”>
<?php espresso_get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘espresso_events’ ); ?>
</div>
archive-espresso_events.php —
<div class=”article”>
<?php espresso_get_template_part( ‘loop’, ‘espresso_events’ ); ?>
</div>
Again .. thanks for any help.

Hi,
The code you showed looks ok, but it’s hard to say for sure with just a snippet like that.
It might be easier to use a plugin like Custom Sidebars, and then create a new sidebar just for the Events custom post type.

If you still want to use the coding method, please provide the full code for each page (Pastebin.com is very useful for that) and we can see more clearly what’s happening.
