Toolset, just as Beaver Builder, styles the content - not the entire website.

Sidebars are part of other things, not the content.
They are added by the Theme, which can - or cannot (it depends on their settings) enable/disable/move those.

If your theme offers no control over sidebars, you cannot remove it without custom code.
If your theme offers such options, you can eventually remove it
If your theme offers such options AND is custom post type ready, then that will as well work on Custom Post Types styled the way you do (our archives).

These last kind of Themes are all listed here:

Can you point me toward directions for adding search / filter to the list.
Thanks

Hi, I can show you how to add search and filtering to a View, or to a WordPress Archive created in Toolset. If you are unable to see the Search and Pagination settings in your View or WordPress Archive, scroll to the top right corner of the editor screen in wp-admin and click "Screen Options". You can turn on different editor panels here. Then place your cursor in the Search and Pagination editor and click "Add Filter" to add custom search filters.

Here is some documentation about custom search Views and custom search WP Archives for you to review:

Hi - I've started to see how this all works now. But I want to style everything in Beaver Builder. Does this mean I can only style the search results in beaver builder and still need to do css for the search elements? I bought Toolset so I don't have to HTML / CSS / PHP etc...

Are there some video tutorials I can watch to get me started quicker? This seems to be quite a slow startup process. Hope it's not just me.
Thanks

Correct, the search results in a View can be fully styled with Beaver Builder using a Content Template. The search filters, however, are not managed in Beaver Builder so customization there will require custom markup and CSS. As far as getting started, we have a channel on YouTube that includes lots of tutorials and examples: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkXU96V638K0OQ-297dL2qA.

We also have a "Learn by Doing" section of the site that includes links with video information: https://toolset.com/learn/
