    I think you are talking about sidebar widget area.
    Go to the
    Appearance > widgets
    Then drag widgets of your choice and drop them in the primary and secondary widget area.

    Nitesh,

    I checked my Widgets, and neither of those (categories or archives) were dropped in the primary and/or secondary areas. Can you help? I'd like them to not show up on every page. Thank you.

    Paste the following code in your custom css
    Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS
    Code:
    .sidebar {
    display: none;
    }
    
    This will solve your issue.

    Thank you, Piyush. :) Also wondering if it's possible to just have the categories and archives appear only on the Blog page.

    For this issue you have to remove the above given code from the custom css and then you have to edit some file of this theme.

    Follow the steps given below.
    1. Remove the code
    Code:
    .sidebar{
    display:none;
    }
    from Custom CSS.

    2. Go to the Pages Panel(Pages -> all pages) and edit all the pages as shown in the image given below, except blog page.
    [​IMG]

    Do the second step with those pages in which you want to remove the sidebar.

    I am following this thread, as I had the same question. Thank you so much!
    However, once I removed the second column, now it is just blank and there is nothing there.
    And, when I go to my blog page to set it to full width, there is no "Attributes" box to choose from. I do have the Attriubutes box on other parts of the theme, but not for blog posts.
    thanks.
