Hello. I am currently using the B7 theme and like it pretty well. I'm wondering though - when I go into my G2 view can i kill the right side bar so the gallery can fill up that portion of the screen? I removed all the right blocks when I enter gallery module but there is still a little filler there. Is there a way to do this through the theme?

Thanks!

you would probably have to alter your G2 theme, or find a G2 theme that doesnt implement a right sidebar.

hmmm i dont believe that there is a right sidebar in the g2 theme. Least not when I load it as a stand alone.

my fault. you mean to disable the right side bar in drupal.
to do so you would remove the region. using a template.php file.

more information regarding regions can be found here http://nicklewis.org/node/846 and in the handbook. These all discuss how to "add" regions. Reading through you should quickly grasp the revserse process of removing a region as well.

or deploy a contributed drupal theme that doesnt employ a right sidebar.

Ok I read that over and it doesn't seem to be quite what I want (i dont think) i'm very new to working with themes and php.

Looking at the page.tpl.php file i found this code:

<?php if ($sidebar_right != ""): ?>
    <td class="sidebar" id="sidebar-right">
         <?php print $sidebar_right ?>
    </td>
     <?php endif; ?>

Is there a way to add another if statement here that checks to see if you are in /gallery module and NOT print the right side bar if we are in /gallery? Or am i barking up the wrong tree still?

Thanks again!
