Render pages with no sidebar/toctree at all?

[Barbara Snyder]

I have searched high and low for this info and just can't find it.

We are using a customized alabaster theme and are playing with a re-org of our docs that would replace the need for a toctree in the sidebar. I would like to remove the sidebar completely, so the text of an HTML page is the full width of the browser window. I have commented out everything I can find related to sidebars, but it is still there. I even tried setting it to 1 pixel in width, but nothing has changed.

How can I tell sphinx to not include the sidebar at all?

Thanks -- Barbara

I did this by customising layout.html with a condition check:

{%- if pagename != "index" and pagename != "search" %}

{%- block sidebar1 %}

    

        {%- for sidebartemplate in sidebars %}

        {%- include sidebartemplate %}

        {%- endfor %}

{% endblock %}

{%- endif %}

Hi Barbara,

I was able to achieve exactly this by adding the following to my conf.py file:

html_theme_options = {

    # Disable showing the sidebar. Defaults to 'false'

    'nosidebar': True,

}

(tested with alabaster theme)

Hope that helps!
