To change the layout or template of your blog page in the classic WordPress Twenty Seventeen theme, you cannot use the modern WordPress Full Site Editor because Twenty Seventeen is a traditional PHP-based theme. Instead, you have to use the built-in WordPress Customizer or create a child theme to manually edit core template files. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Here is how you can change your blog template layout using both non-coding and coding methods.

Method 1: Change Layout Options via the Customizer (No Code)

The built-in Customizer lets you switch your blog page template from the standard two-column layout (with a sidebar) to a clean, single-column layout. [1, 2]

  1. Log into your WordPress dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Appearance > Customize.
  3. Click on the Theme Options tab.
  4. Look for the Page Layout or Blog Layout dropdown menu.
  5. Select One Column to make your content full-width, or Two Columns to keep the sidebar layout.
  6. Click Publish at the top to save your changes. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

Method 2: Force Global Structural Changes Using a Plugin

Because Twenty Seventeen has limited default layout settings, many users install the Options for Twenty Seventeen plugin to access advanced template adjustments without writing code. [1, 2]

  1. Go to Plugins > Add New in your dashboard.
  2. Search for Options for Twenty Seventeen.
  3. Install and activate the plugin.
  4. Return to Appearance > Customize.
  5. You will see several new advanced menus that allow you to forcefully change the column structure of your search, blog, and archive page templates independently. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Method 3: Manually Override Template Files (Developer Method)

If you need a highly unique blog design, you must override Twenty Seventeen’s core theme files. Modifying files directly will erase your edits during the next theme update, so you should use a child theme. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

  1. Set up a Child Theme: Ensure you have a standard twentyseventeen-child folder configured in your website’s directories. [1]
  2. Locate the Index File: In your main theme files (/wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen/), copy the index.php file, which dictates the core blog layout template. [1, 2, 3]
  3. Paste into Child Theme: Paste index.php directly into your child theme root folder. [1]
  4. Modify Template Parts: If you want to modify how individual blog posts render inside that template loop, copy files like content.php from the template-parts/post/ directory into a mirrored folder structure inside your child theme
