Taking out the sidebar on Wordpress pages

December 8th, 2009

Okay, someone asked me on twitter how to do this, because they wanted a forum page and the sidebar was getting in the way.

So you need to edit just one page. What your going to want to do is create a new “template” for the page. So make a copy of page.php and rename it… say “forum.php”.

and add this at the top of the page to make sure wordpress knows its a template page:

<?php

/*

Template Name: Forum

*/

?>

next, you need to find <?php sidebar(); ?> in the code and remove it, or comment it out, save the file to the same directory as the rest of your template files. (index.php page.php single.php or whatever else is in there)

Now you need to create your page again (in the admin panel), so im assuming you can just copy/paste the forum code into the “html” section….

Make the new page, paste the code into the html section. and on the bottom right under “attributes” theres a dropdown menu labeled “template” defaulted to “default template”. click that and change it to “Forum”.

Hope this helps!

Live How You Live

February 5th, 2009

A motto to some and a lifestyle for others, in any means, this band puts on an unreal show. I attended their CD Release and was amazed at the singing capabilities of Carm Milito, and Playing abilities of the rest of the band.

‘The Joys’ opened for them and put on an amazing show aswell, I couldn’t believe how the lead singer (Sarah Smith) worked the crowd and put her heart and soul into her music. It was breathtaking.

When ‘Live How You Live’ came on stage, I saw everyone rush to the front of the stage and flashes from cameras starting going off everywhere - thats when I knew this was going to be an amazing show. The band came out strong and wowed the crowd. They kept the spirit alive through the whole show and ended with the whole place cheering and even some singing along!

All-in-all this band has what it takes.

They will be on tour for the next month and will be playing at the Bluemoon Lounge on Feb 28th for their return from tour party. If your in the area, come check it out!

Amazing Talent

January 11th, 2009

Before I went to work last night, I check which bands were playing. I then checked out their myspace to see what type of music I would be recording. When checking out Dean Lickyer’s myspace I noticed Much Music’s disBand link at the top of their profile so I checked it out.

To my suprise they were actually on the show! I watched the whole episode and was blown away by the talent of these young guys. The singer is amazing, guitarist is out of this world and everything else was unreal.

Needless to say I was pretty pumped to be working with these guys and getting some recording down for them.

Check out their Jackson 5 cover they played last night at Bluemoonlounge.ca

Been a while

January 10th, 2009

I have definitely been busy lately with school and such, but hopefully I am back! I suddenly got a spark of interest in my site again while working my new job at the Bluemoon Lounge. I am doing some recordings for them and occasionally working the board. Be sure to check out the site for some of my recordings and come down and check out the amazing bands playing there in the next couple months!
