   Hi guys,

   Just wondering the easiest way to go about changing the global archive template to display 3 posts and no sidebar would be?

   Thanks,

   Hey,
   it would require some mods to change the structure to a three column layout but I can show you how to limit the number of items. In includes/loop-archive.php replace:
   

   </div><!--end post-entry-->

   with:
   

   </div><!--end post-entry-->
   if($smallcounter == 2){ break; }

   Alright, so I have removed they sidebar by changing the div class archive template to a full page width template in the archives.php file

   <div class='template-fullwidth content'>

   and then removing

   <?php
   if(empty($avia_config['currently_viewing'])) $avia_config['currently_viewing'] = "blog";
   //get the sidebar
   get_sidebar();

   ?>

   Now I am just trying to get the 3 column break instead of two. I'm feeling like this needs to me modified. in the loop-archive.php file.

   $alternate = $smallcounter % 2 == 0 ? 'even' : 'odd';

   thoughts?

   Try to replace:
   

   $alternate = $smallcounter % 2 == 0 ? 'even' : 'odd';

   with:
   

   $alternate = $smallcounter % 3 == 0 ? 'even' : 'odd';

   Try to add following code to css/custom.css and also make the modification above.
   

   .archive .half_post_odd {
       clear: none;
   }

   In archive.php replace:
   

   container

   with
   

   container template-fullwidth

   and
   

   template-blog content

   with:
   

   template-blog content template-fullwidth

   So that worked, it now spans three archive previews, however, the spacing in between the posts gets all messed up. Some get clumped together, some end up on a row of their own. It's not even spacing like in the two archive preview per a row. :/

   Thanks :)
