    I do not use Sidebars on my site and should have disabled it everywhere. But when I go to a vendors shop page the sidebar is shown and its placed way down in the left of the footer. Any tips on where I can remove this on this page? Have tried in the “Vendor Stores” in the backend but there it’s no settings for “Sidebars”.

    Oh, the joys of using an improperly coded free theme from WordPress.org named Pinnacle…..

    Your theme is coded to be incompatible with WooCommerce in general. The theme developer has injected HTML and their own PHP into Woo Templates, which causes plugins like ours who hook into those templates to look poor. Three choices:

    1.) Tell the theme author to rewrite their archive-products.php to use the WooCommerce hooks/filters, instead of manually hacking in code. (Best choice, since this is a theme developer problem, they are doing things sooooooo wrong it’s not even funny).

    2.) Follow this KB article and fix the templates yourself: https://www.wcvendors.com/kb/pro-store-layout-fixes/

    3.) Toss some cash our way ($50-$75 depending on the time it takes) for the labor to re-code the templates for your site.

    OK I see. Thanks. Do you have a suggested theme that looks good with your plugin and woocommerce and is well coded?

    @karl woothemes would be a good place to start. A few of them are free! http://www.woothemes.com/product-category/themes/woocommerce/

    All of WooThemes themes are properly coded (as they should be!). Storefront is free and exceptionally nice if you put the time and effort into tweaking the heck out of it, otherwise it looks a bit plain. Avada also looks very clean.

    OK, thank you both 🙂

    This Avada: http://demo.theme-fusion.com/ ?

    Hi,

    I also need to remove the sidebar from shop pages. The theme is ‘Merchandiser’ by getbowtied.com (author of the well-known Shopkeeper theme.) Here’s a link: https://theartjet.com/art/julie-cohn/

    I contacted Bowtied but they haven’t responded with any input. Any advice, or could you do this for a fee?

    Thanks,
    Tom

    Tom,
    If your theme uses the normal archive-product.php template for woocommerce shop pages, then you may be able to edit that template. Move it to your child theme (your-child-theme/woocommerce/archive-product.php)
    Some where it should have this on the page:
    get_sidebar();

    You can see if it works to edit that to read something like this:

    
    if ( !is_shop() ) {
    get_sidebar();
    }

    I do not know how your theme has modified those pages, though. Perhaps also contact your theme author and describe the need to remove sidebars under certain conditions.

    Hi Anna,

    Thanks for the quick response. I couldn’t get that to work. I attached the archive-product.php file in case you wanted to look at it.

    May need to hire a developer! Have a great day.

    Best,
    Tom
