Man, it's been a while since I messed with this coding. So, long story, I used a customizable user profile where you can edit the width of the columns to make it a 1, 2, or 3 column profile. What you had to do was edit a width to "0" to make the column disappear. I only wanted two columns, so I made column 1 a width of "0" and now I can't take the widgets out of there (which includes the profile edit box thingy) :'( haaaaaalp!
If you go here: https://subeta.net/preferences.php?act=profile you should be able to edit the coding enough to make the changes you need. :)
