  Hello,

  Please view the pictures below, I need to add a php file above the single post content and sidebar

  This is the original setting I have now:

  I need it to become like this and I have upload the section.php file into the parallelus-razor directory

  I tried to include(‘section.php’); on the first line of single.php, the file was included but the sidebar overlapping the section.php area.

  Please help me solve this thank you very much.

  Hi @rl2013,

  We cannot help you with this level of customisation or assist in changing the theme’s files.

  I can suggest though that you use the layout manager for this and then a PHP execution plugin.

  Hi Steve,

  I don’t really need help in execution of the php file, I just need to know where can I place my code so that my file will be display “outside” the main content and sidebar area.

  Hi @rl2013,

  1. Create a layout that uses a full-wdith container at the top and a container below that which can house your main content and sidebar.

  2. Install a plugin such as ‘Insert PHP’ and put your PHP code in the top container via a Static Block.

  Doing the above will mean you don’t have to edit any files. However if you insist, I would have a look at either the design.php or design-header.php files.
