In Genesis Slack chat a user asked:

Has anyone here created a full-width `after-entry` widget area? In other words:

|content |sidebar |
| after-entry |
| comments |

We can reposition author box, after entry widget area, adjacent entry navigation and comments from after entry to after content on single posts by removing the actions hooked to genesis_after_entry and adding them to genesis_after_content.

Step 1

Add the following in child theme’s functions.php:

// Reposition author box, after entry widget area, adjacent entry navigation and comments from after entry to after content on single posts

remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_do_author_box_single', 8 );
add_action( 'genesis_after_content', 'genesis_do_author_box_single' );

remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_after_entry_widget_area' );
add_action( 'genesis_after_content', 'genesis_after_entry_widget_area' );

remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_adjacent_entry_nav' );
add_action( 'genesis_after_content', 'genesis_adjacent_entry_nav' );

remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_get_comments_template' );
add_action( 'genesis_after_content', 'genesis_get_comments_template' );

Step 2

Add the following in child theme’s style.css:

.single .author-box {
	clear: both;
}
