One of the options in the Salient theme is to Hide/Unhide Sidebar on Single Post. I would like to have a sidebar appear on all my normal blog posts, but not on the custom post type I created with Toolset which is called "Updates". Unfortunately, I'm not seeing a setting in Toolset that allows me to disable the sidebar. You can see an example of an update post type here: hidden link You'll see that there's a sidebar in gray that is part of Toolset layout which I, of course, want to keep and extra sidebar appearing to the right of the photo which I don't want to appear. Is there a way for me to turn off this extra sidebar from appearing on my Toolset "Updates" post?

The Salient Theme is not integrated with the Toolset Theme Options as far I know, hence there is no setting for this in the Toolset GUI.

It's up to the Theme to define the Template; it seems your Theme provides some options for Posts only if you do not see those Options on the Single Custom Post Edit Screen.
Or eventually, that Theme lets you add Custom Posts to this feature in its settings?

What you can also try is to play around with the settings of the Post Type in Toolset > Post Types > your_post_type > edit > "Sections to display when editing {post_type}" and "Options > Pages/hierarchical"

It might be that the Theme displays the different Template options only per particular Post Type register attributes.

Please let me know if you have success. Otherwise, you might send me a copy of that theme in the next Private Reply so I can analyse it.
Please let me know the exact steps I will have to follow to see the issue.

In the last resort, I will show you how you can do some magic with Toolset - by integrating Layout into the theme, but programmatically (no worries, this is just a small code edit).

Let's see what we can do to solve this problem 🙂

Thanks for you help, Beda. As it turns out, the folks at Salient were able to solve this by giving me some css code to make the sidebar disappear on our custom content type:

.single-update div#sidebar {
display: none !important;
}
.single-update div#post-area {
width: 100% !important;
}
