    Hi,

    I would like to change the blog layout in that way,
    so that the featured image appears full-width above the sidebar instead of next to it – please see screenshots:

    This is the normal layout as seen at your demo site:

    and this is a composing what I like to achieve:
    a) featured image full-width
    b) and as a result the sidebar below it

    I’m using the plugin “simple-image-size”, so I guess, that I can there change the size of the featured image.
    Could anyone help me out please, what to change in the loop-index.php (I guess?) to make the featured image full-width AND therefor the sidebar below it?

    Thanks a lot, appreciate!

    Hi Chris!

    it would require a huge amount of time and customization of the theme and that is why you would need to hire a freelance developer for this job.

    However, you could try to build a custom layout when activating ALB for your blog.

    Thanks, but what do you mean to build a custom layout for the blog? The blog page or a single post? I don’t understand, sorry …?

    Hi!

    You can use Advanced Layout Builder to create your posts and add fullwidth image at the top of your posts on single posts.

    okay, thank you, I will take a look ..

    But what happens to such posts, created with ALB, when I switch the theme some day (unlikely, but not impossible ;-) )?

    Hi!

    If the theme you changed does not use Advanced Layout Builder (Kriesi is planning to make it a standalone plugin, no ETA yet unfortunately), ALB shortcodes would not work on the other theme. But if you add featured image and only text blocks on your blog posts, you would not have issues. Only image at the top would be removed (since there is no shortcodes to support it)

    thanks for that explanation. In this case I think it is better for me to let the featured image and sidebar “as is”.
    Thank you!
