Context
An addon wants to use the whole width in the webbrowser

Current solution
In PHP the addon uses replace_macros(Theme::get_template('xy.tpl', 'addon/xy'), array(....
In JavaScript the addon uses $("aside").remove();

Question
Is there a better way to do it?
(In Streams I found different Templates under Code/Render but are not sure how to use it correctly. I will have to do the same in Hubzilla.)

You can define the full width template in the pdl file...

I found some pdl but no usage.

Could you give more hints?

OK, @Mario Vavti I will search and try more and come back if neccessary. It is not super important. One the other hand it has the potential to understand more about themes, pages layout,... Haha

I answered this with the wrong identity so it might not have gotten through:

[template]full[/template]

should achieve what you're after. There are several ways of loading a Comanche layout for an addon. You can use the load_pdl hook (event listener) and set the 'layout' property on the callback array.

function myaddon_load_pdl(&$arr) {
   if ($arr['module'] === 'myaddon') {
       $arr['layout'] = '[template]full[/template]';
  }
}

Alternatively, if your addon is called 'xyz' and defines a controller (route) for 'xyz', we'll automatically look for mod_xyz.pdl in your addon directory if your addon controller responds at https://z.macgirvin.com/xyz.
