Removing sidebar from a single beamer frame
\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Goettingen}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usecolortheme{seahorse}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}{title}
\lipsum
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[plain]{title}
\advance\textwidth2cm
\hsize\textwidth
\columnwidth\textwidth
\lipsum
\end{frame}
\end{document}
Based on David's answer, you can do the following. I also suggest you to remove the navigation symbols because with this approach there is a problem in the specialframe
.
\documentclass[c]{beamer}
\usetheme{Goettingen}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usecolortheme{seahorse}
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{} % removes navigation symbols
\newenvironment{specialframe}
{
\begingroup
\advance\textwidth2cm % see beamerthemeGoettingen.sty for the number
\hsize\textwidth
\columnwidth\textwidth
\begin{frame}[plain]
}
{
\end{frame}
\endgroup
}
\begin{document}
\begin{specialframe}
\frametitle{This is a special frame}
\lipsum[1]
\end{specialframe}
\begin{frame}{No special frame}
\lipsum[2]
\end{frame}
\end{document}
