Hi Joseph
Assuming you don’t want to put any further content on that page, paste the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:
.home #main { display: none; }Thanks for that. Is there a way for us to connect our store search engine to the search form within the template? Thanks!
For sure.
Vantage and Page Builder don’t handle search, that’s a part of the WordPress core. If your store is powered from within WordPress then the search should be picking it’s contents up. If you’d like to augment the search you could consider a third-party plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=search.
The store pages are not within the WordPress site. They only borrow the header and footer. I noticed that the sidebar in this template is not like other templates. Is this due to being responsive?
Running a search from within WP to search an external database would unfortunately be a custom development task, I can’t think of an automated solution to set that up.
Please send through some more info on your sidebar question and I’ll try answer. What is different?
Why cannot we simply add a sidebar to a individual page and have the sidebar not be affected by what is on the page? I have some includes from our shopping cart developer to add parts of the store like recent viewed products and customer login. There are all php includes that need to be placed in the sidebar. I don’t want the sidebar to be on every page. Can this be accomplished? Thanks!
Anything can be achieved, it’s all unfortunately well into the custom development category and would need to be handled by a developer.
You mean I cannot simply choose the sidebar and add the php includes and have them show up on the side of the store pages? This seems to be simple thing to most.
It’s not possible to insert PHP via the Text or Visual Editor widget, if you wanted to give this a try you’d need to use something like:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php/
Here you will see an example of the side bar look to towards the bottom on the right you will see the mini shopping cart in the side bar but its pushed to the bottom. How can I bring this to the top? Also how can I add the side bar to only certain pages? This is supposed to be an option with the template is it not? Do i have control over where the sidebar is placed?

If the sidebar has widgets added to it then the sidebar will appear:
On the blog/archive pages
On single post pages
On any page running the default page template.
It’s not possible to filter the sidebar any further than this. For further control you can try WooSidebars or Jetpack Widget Visibility.
How have your products been added to this page? How has this been achieved?
This is a link to answer all your questions concerning how the shopping cart is integrated into WordPress.

The reason I ask, is that the Vantage #primary div is missing from the page you’ve sent through. This is the reason the sidebar, #secondary, is below the product catalog.
We do our utmost to assist where we can, but don’t handle theme customisation beyond the theme’s settings. We routinely help out with small tweaks, like the CSS I initially sent in this thread, but something of this level needs to be supported by a developer.
This is the reason the sidebar, #secondary, is below the product catalog. Can this be corrected? I am not sure I understand your answer.
To explain further. The manner in which the products container has been integrated into this page has caused the #primary div, a left floated container usually in place, to disappear. This missing #primary container causes the #secondary container (the sidebar) to drop underneath. The integration between Ecommerce Templates and Vantage is unfortunately not something we’re able to support.
