I want to change layout of category listing page from 2columns-left to 1column by xml.

for this what i have tried so far.

In root\magento-ce-2.0.0\vendor\magento\module-catalog\view\frontend\layout\catalog_category_view.xml

I changed 

<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="2columns-left" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">

to 

<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="1column" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">

but this is not working, whereas if i change Page Layout of category from admin of then changes reflecting but i don't want to make changes from admin i want it from xml.

Can any one please help me for this.

  • Create custom module with sequence or override it in your theme. – Ashish Madankar M2 Professiona Apr 10 '19 at 13:32

May be other module rewrite that layout please check other module not conflict with it.

It is bad habit to edit core files create module and add file to

app/code/Vendor/Modulename/view/frontend/layout/catalog_category_view.xml

add below code to file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="1column" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <head></head>
    <body></body>
</page>
