Hello,

Is there a way to remove the sidebars in a content template built with toolset blocks ?

Thank you

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

In general, Toolset has an effect on the content area (post body) area. Toolset do not control the header, footer and sidebars until and unless you are using the recommended theme or integrated page builders.

Here is the list of recommended themes and page builders:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/recommended-themes/
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/page-builders/

If you are not using one of our recommended themes or the page builder you will need to control the sidebars using your theme as simply Toolset do not control it.

I use Elementor.
So should i use Elementor to create the content template and not Toolset blocks ?

thank you

Two more questions please.
1) If i can use elementor to build the content template, do i need the Pro version or the free version is enough
2) Is Brizy builder also compatible with Toolset?

Thank you

==>
This is on you, how you want to create your template. Either you can use elementor or blocks at a time.

Please check the following Doc about Toolset integration with Elementor:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-toolset-with-elementor-page-builder/

Please note the limitation as well:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-toolset-with-elementor-page-builder/create-templates-for-custom-post-types-with-elementor-and-toolset/#limitations-when-using-elementor-and-toolset-templates-together

1) If i can use elementor to build the content template, do i need the Pro version or the free version is enough
==> It on you, if you want pro features, you need to use pro version.

2) Is Brizy builder also compatible with Toolset?
==> We do not have any official integration with Brizy builder but more or less it should work but we have couple of known issues reported by clients with using Brizy builder with Toolset.

I created the content template with elementor pro and now i am trying to form the actual content.
I don't see any way to insert the dynamic field "post body".
Is there a way to do so ?

Have you checked how you can build content templates using elementor?
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-toolset-with-elementor-page-builder/create-templates-for-custom-post-types-with-elementor-and-toolset/

If you are using elementor's template, then you should create a content template from Toolset => Content Templates and add whatever fields you want to display to that content template. You can use the [wpv-post-body] shortcocde to display the post content.
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views/views-shortcodes/#wpv-post-body
For example:

[wpv-post-body view_template="None"]

And then add a shortcode module to your elementor's template and to that shortcode module add the content template shortcode:

[wpv-post-body view_template="your-content-template-slug"]
