Have Posts show sidebar but not blog

Hi,

I’m trying to update the look of my site and I can’t seem to find an option where my posts (articles) show the sidebar but the blog homepage does not. Is this an option?

Thanks!

I don’t think this is what was asked.

I need to know how to have a custom homepage and a blog page (set as the ‘posts page’ in wp reading settings) without the sidebar and with a title.
And have the sidebar on all single posts.
Is it again something that can only be done through the template rewrite?

You can have a homepage with no sidebar. Are you using WPBakery? Here is my homepage with no sidebar. http://www.satellitebeachdaily.com

I need to have a custom Homepage and use a News page for the Blog (both set in the WP reading settings). And then I need to have the News (blog) page without the sidebar. But have the sidebar on single posts. I don’t see any way of doing this, because it says that the same sidebar settings are used on index.php and single.php. I had to rewrite the index.php in a child them to be able to do what the client wants.
Since there are so many settings for every possible archive page, it would make sense to have a separate setting for the sidebar for the blog and single post pages.
And I am not using WPBakery.

Sorry rlappare if I stole your thread. Perhaps your question was different from mine and I should have opened yet another thread.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for the reply.
Yes, that is an option. Didn’t see that template because I already had the page set as the blog page in WP settings. And in that case, the templates do not show.
