Answer 1

I just wanted to update this post for WooCommerce version 3.2.3 - 2017

OK the WooCommerce Plugin includes a folder with all the template files if you want to make changes to the template on a custom theme or child theme you need to copy all of the desired template into a folder called woocommerce in your root theme folder. This will overwrite the plugin templates and will allow for WooCommerce updates with overwriting your custom changes. These templates have all of the do_actions and hooks in the comments so it makes it easy to understand how it's working.

That said WooCommerce has hooks that allow for you to add or remove blocks of code you can check out the API Docs here.

To remove the side bar you need to add this into your functions.php file in your theme setup function

remove_action( 'woocommerce_sidebar', 'woocommerce_get_sidebar', 10 );

Please, add this code to your functions.php

function mb_remove_sidebar() {
    return false;
}

add_filter( 'is_active_sidebar', 'mb_remove_sidebar', 10, 2 );
