 * Hi,
 * I am using a theme called yestilo that I am working on personalising.
 * It has 2 features built into the sidebar that I cant remove or switch off. A 
   video and then adverts underneath that. Below those the sidebar splits into 2
   where I have the functionality to add widgets through the control panel.
 * How DO I either remove the video placement or even better make it so that it 
   can be switched on and off if it is simple enough to do?
 * I also want to remove the built in ads and turn the area into a full width side
   bar where I can add widgets which would mean I had a full width side bar and 
   then a left and right sidebar below.
 * I am new to wordpress so will no doubt need this breaking down for me.
 * All help very much appreciated.
 * Regards
 * Paul

 * Hey Paul,
 * I don’t know what the theme looks like but I’ll take a stab at it. The template
   makers probably hard coded those information into function.php. Take a look there
   and see if you can make sense of the code.
 * I wrote a tutorial similar to what you want to do. Check it out and contact me
   via Twitter if you need hand with your current theme.

 * in your index.php of the theme remove the following and those fields will no 
   longer be there.
 * <div class=”videopost”> </div>
    <div class=”clear”> </div> <div class=”banner”
   ></div>
 * hope that helps

 * Sorted, Your’e article was superb.
 * I have commented out the video code and the theme ad code and that seems to have
   done the trick.

 * Did you erase anything in the function that your template relied on? Take the
   original template and replace the function.php that should fix your problem. 
   If you are following my tutorial with this template, just add on to the function.
   php don’t erase everything.

 * I haven’t deleted anything!!
 * I have managed to get the site back online by deleting the theme logging in and
   activating a different theme and then re-uploading the original theme and activating
   it which is a good start.
 * However I am getting these headers already sent messages everytime I try and 
   do something in the back end.
 * Always the same message about headers but refering to different lines on different.
   php files.
 * I really am not clued up enough to fix this.
 * The only files I changed to try and sort my side bar issue where functions.php
   and sidebar.php
 * Thanks
