Thanks for following up! :-)

Best,

Chris

Never mind. I was using the page name, not the ID. =)

I too am looking to change only one page to single-column. I tried putting the code you posted in my .css, but it did not work. Is there anything else I need to add? thanks.

Hi there,

You can try adding the following to your custom CSS...

body.page-id-XXXX .entry {
	-moz-column-count: 1;
	-webkit-column-count: 1;
	column-count: 1;
}

Where XXXX is the id of the page you want to have 1 column.

Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks!

Chris

Good afternoon (I hope this is the right area for this question the previous ones seem to be about removing the two column feature from the whole site)

My goal is to get one page to not have the two column option on it so that I can add a full width clickable image to the page that will allow download of a snipit from the book, or to be able to click the featured image whichever's easier.

Thank you very much for your time the theme looks great!

Gary

Thanks for sharing! ;-)

If you are using the CSS above...

If you want just the front page to be different, make a new template page (such as front-page.php) and copy the information from single.php, but change to entry. Then make sure you have

<?php
/*
Template Name: Front
*/
?>

(name of the template is up to you) at the top of that php page. On the index page, change the template to Front (or whatever it is named based on that code snippet).

Ok - i found where you need to change the class from ="entry" to "entry double" if you want pages to be full width but posts to keep column - It's in the single.php file.

In case you are ready this comment first, you need to make teh changes listed above to the style.css file THEN go to the single.php file and change the div class on line 19 to "entry double".

Specifically, I have full width pages now but I want back the two column layout for just the Index page. How do i implement your suggestion without changing back all the pages to two columns?

This was very helpful since I was also wanting a full width page option.

Question: After updated the CSS per your directions above you say "On the pages you DO need two columns (main page, search results, etc) change class="entry" to class="entry double"

Where do i make that class change? Do I have to manually change it on every post that I want to have 2 columns? Please explain this part a bit better.

Sincerely,

Matthew

I have other question about two columns. Is possible to do in post a double column but in pages 1 column?

The keyboard keys only apply to category/listing pages such as the home page. If that doesn't work, send me a link to your site and I'll check it out.

Thank you very much, it works :)
I only have one more little question: on the demo, the navigation bitween pages using the keyboard keys is working, but on my site it doesnt, what could be causing this problem?

That's correct, just remove all references to the column count in the CSS file.

I think the easiest (and least destructive) way would be to change the following...

.entry {
	-moz-column-count: 2;
	-webkit-column-count: 2;
	column-count: 2;
	-moz-column-gap: 60px;
	-webkit-column-gap: 60px;
	column-gap:60px;
	-moz-column-rule: 1px dashed #eee;
	-webkit-column-rule: 1px dashed #eee;
	column-rule: 1px dashed #eee;

...To...

.entry {
	-moz-column-gap: 60px;
	-webkit-column-gap: 60px;
	column-gap:60px;
	-moz-column-rule: 1px dashed #eee;
	-webkit-column-rule: 1px dashed #eee;
	column-rule: 1px dashed #eee;
}

.double {
	-moz-column-count: 2;
	-webkit-column-count: 2;
	column-count: 2;
}

On the pages you DO need two columns (main page, search results, etc) change class="entry" to class="entry double"

Not tested, but in theory it should work.

Hey there, Christopher!

I am really happy with your theme 'The Novelist', and usually I have many issues with other themes from other people, but here I have only one little issue that I really hope to "fix". :)

I wish to disable the automatic 'two columns' forcing completely and have a single wide column. What should I do?

Thanks!
