Mark -

Is there a way to not call the sidebar on the pages that I have TNG showing.  I use the Inove theme and it is relatively narrow, also, I don't use the widget menu that comes with the TNG plugin, so I don't need the sidebar. 

Additionally, I have made the page that I have the plugin pointing to a “sidebarless” page, but when I click on any link inside of TNG it brings up the sidebar – thus overshadowing the TNG pages.

It appears the plugin is calling the theme sidebar, eventhough I have it set to a page without sidebars.  How can I stop that?  Thanks.

You should be able to just remove the TNG widgets from within Wordpress. Go to Design / Widgets.

Hi Mark – Thanks for the quick reply.  I think however, I wasn't very clear on what I am trying to achieve.  Let me take another go at it.

I currently don't use the TNG widget.  I have the TNG plugin installed and pointing to a page that has no “Sidebars”.  When I click on the page link to take me to my TNG website, the frontpage comes up fine (without the sidebars), but when I click any other link within the TNG page (ie. the Surname page) it loads up the sidebar.  I have a narrow theme so the sidebar overlaps the TNG data.

I am not a programmer in the least, but I was looking through your code to see if there was anywhere in your plugin where calling up the sidebars could be prevented. 

Personally, I think it might be a bug, since the page the plugin is pointing to is a single page (without sidebars).  But it would probably be presumptuous of me to make that leap since I am not a programmer.

Thanks for your help.

If you're talking about the sidebar within the TNG page, that's part of the TNG template. If you know how to edit templates you can remove it. If you don't you may be able to hide it with CSS. If you send me a link I may be able to suggest a way of doing this.

I know exactly what Rupert is referring to. Not because I have a solution, but because I have the same problem.

I would imagine the plugin is referencing "page.php" to put TNG in, even though the page I have it launch from is using the "page-nosidebar.php" template. Like Rupert says, the first page loads fine, but every click after that it tries to load in the "page.php" template, which has a sidebar and it gets totally out of whack.

Does that make sense?

Hi Spackletoe -
Its been quite a while since I made that post and ended up deactivating the TNG plugin. I really liked it, but I just couldn't get around the overlapping issue – it was unsightly. I do know a bit more about css though, but apparently not enough, as that didn't get me to the desired endstate.

I stopped posting here about it, as I figured I had used up my quota of whining…let me know if you find a solution…am sitll interested.

Good luck.
