I am trying to remove the left column (or both is ok) of the bp-social theme for the group creation process.

During the group creation process the file “create.php” is called, (to launch the create group form within the existing theme.)
I want to change the theme to not use three columns during this process.

I tried to make a template and call this template in create.php, but it appears that the columns are called in the header.

So as I understnad it, my create.php has to call the header, and the header is (I think) calling “member-left.php”.
(This is the over all theme design of the left column.)
I tried to setup my create.php to call the “header-noleft.php”

which excludes the call in the header to “member-left.php” ?

this just seems to have made a bigger mess.

(maybe there’s a totally different way of doing this?)
