Hi,

The column on the left is actually created with a background image that repeats vertically giving the column effect.

You would need to create a new template based on the theme you have downloaded and apply this to the Fireboard section of your site.

The content area also has a fixed width so you would need to modify this in the CSS.

I would duplicate the template folder - then in the duplicate change the name of the template in templateDetails.xml to fireboard-theme or something similar.

Then you would need to open body.png in an image editor and replace the grey area on the left with white {not the 1 pixel grey border on far left} save your new image into your duplicate template images folder as body.png to replace the old one.

open your duplicate templates index.php and remove the left &lt;div&gt; entries:

&lt;div id=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
&lt;?php mosLoadModules('user1', -2); ?&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;leftInner&quot;&gt;
&lt;?php mosLoadModules ( 'left', -2 ); ?&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

Then open layout.css and change the #content width to something like 830px - you can tweak this later to get the width right - you are basically adding the width and padding values that have been removed from the left column so that #content takes up the full screen width.

Upload your template to your sites templates directory - go into your joomla admin - site menu &gt; template manager and &quot;apply&quot; the template to your fireboard menu.

Voila!

If all of this seems like to much work we do custom template development - this modification is probably an hours work.

Ola,

Thanks for your time and respons of my added issue.

Ok, i did what you have been published.

I think something not doing well by me...
You provided the following:
Then you would need to open body.png in an image editor and replace the grey area on the left with white {not the 1 pixel grey border on far left} save your new image into your duplicate template images folder as body.png to replace the old one.
You see I not understand it wel...
See here: http://test.vipyammer.com/index.php

The whole template must be stay intact (Left frame and Content Frame). Removed the entries from the index.php and changed the layout.css (#content to 830px) but as you can see still the same (Yes I know...the body.png was set wrong).
When clicking on the Fireboard button (On the TOP) still the FB showing only in the content frame...

What did I wrong...

Still want to continiu with this super free template!

PS: Soor for my poor english. I'm Dutch:silly:
I'M attached the body.png...Maybe you have some little time to correct this as you sad...
File Attachment:
File Name: copy_of_body.zip
File Size: 417


Hoppefully you are able to help me out with this...

Ok...Attachment received and added.

But correct me if I wrong. When removing
&lt;div id=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
&lt;?php mosLoadModules('user1', -2); ?&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;leftInner&quot;&gt;
&lt;?php mosLoadModules ( 'left', -2 ); ?&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
from the index.php then on all pages the left modules not available anymore!
I want these still available but only the forum I want it on the full width..

Greetings,
Vipyammer

PS: Thanks for your quick responses

So you have duplicated the entire template folder as explained in my first post?

Your solution is to have two templates - one that you have modified to only have one central column and the original one with two columns.

You will apply the duplicated template to the fireboard pages.

In your site menu &gt; template manager apply your new theme to the required pages - i.e. fireboard
