Need to create a full-width page in WordPress? That is, a page where the content takes up the full width of your site and there’s no sidebar to get in the way?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, not all WordPress themes come with their own full-width templates, which might be why you’re reading this post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Why some themes don’t include full-width page templates \ud83d\udca1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every page you visit features a different template. Some of them have footers, others have massive hero sections, a few have hidden menus, and myriad other layouts. However, we can break down most page layouts into two categories: with and without sidebars<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sidebar-only templates don’t allow you to get rid of that element. Although sidebars can be helpful in many cases, a specific design may not call for it. As such, you’ll often feel stuck (or at least limited in your choice of theme.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most modern themes enable you to use full-width templates with any of your pages. However, some themes don’t provide the same level of flexibility. This can be a dealbreaker, but switching themes is often too much of a hassle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To check if your theme already includes a full-width template, create or edit a WordPress page and expand the Template<\/strong> drop-down under Page Attributes<\/strong> in the sidebar. If your theme already includes a full-width template, you can use that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some themes, like the free Neve theme<\/a>, also give you additional page settings to control the width of your page:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
