Hi,

I am trying to modify the nu plone theme slightly.

I do not want to change any colours etc, I am just trying t rmove the right hand column where the calender is and have the mail body span accross the entire right hand side including where the calender was.

I tried doing
#portal-column-two: disable;

Looks like it disabled the column but the space is now just empty. How do I get the main body to span accross?

Isued the following as a guide but had no success, based on default plone theme however so that may be the reason:

Your help would be appreciated

You can try playing around with #portal-column-content width. I tried making it 100% to see what happens, but that stretches it way past the screen width.

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)
You'd be better off using display: none; if you use css that should make it take up no room

It's been a while since I ploned much and I don't know the nu plone theme but you can likely still turn off the right hand column by taking out all the portlets from it

Hope that helps

You should "never" define the width of the center column.
If you dont want anything on the right you should remove all portlets
