In the customizer I have set the site to FULLWIDTH. Is there no way to put a sidebar now in the blog page? If so, please enlighten me.

[Houston]

After perusing through the forum, I have concluded that I need to change the layout to “Content left, Sidebar right” and then go and change all the pages to “Fullwidth”. So I tried that but the BLOG page still does not show a sidebar. The BLOG PAGE also has no way of changing the template at all. Am I missing something or is there a better way?

Many thanks,
Houston

Hi there,

If you’re using “Content left, Sidebar right” then there should be sidebar on your blog page. Would you mind providing us with login credentials so we can take a closer look? To do this, you can make a post with the following info:

– Link to your site
– WordPress Admin username / password

Hi there,

Please try switching to the parent theme and see if that renders your sidebar. If so, you will need to check your child theme templates and customizations added which causes this issue.

Thanks!

Yes, that made it appear. So I started investigating and found that I used this code in the functions.php file to create a sidebar on the Products page of woocommerce. I need that. So would you happen to know how I can make this work?

Here is the code that is in the functions.php in the child-theme.

//customsidebar for the products page
if ( ! function_exists( 'x_get_content_layout' ) ) :
  function x_get_content_layout() {

    $stack          = x_get_stack();
    $content_layout = x_get_option( 'x_' . $stack . '_layout_content', 'sidebar-content' );

//    if ( $content_layout != 'full-width' ) {
      if ( is_home() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_blog_layout', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
      } elseif ( is_singular( 'post' ) ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_post_layout', true );
        $layout = ( $meta == 'on' ) ? 'full-width' : $content_layout;
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio() ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_portfolio_layout', true );
        $layout = ( $meta == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $meta;
      } elseif ( is_archive() ) {
        if ( x_is_shop() || x_is_product_category() || x_is_product_tag() || x_is_product() ) {
          $layout = 'sidebar-content';
        } else {
          $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_archive_layout', 'sidebar' );
          $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        }
      } elseif ( x_is_product() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_bbpress() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_bbpress_layout_content', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
      } elseif ( x_is_buddypress() ) {

      } elseif ( is_404() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } else {
        $layout = $content_layout;
      }
//    } else {
//      $layout = $content_layout;
//    }

      if ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-content-sidebar.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'content-sidebar';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-sidebar-content.php' ) ) {

      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-full-width.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      }

    return $layout;

  }
endif;

add_filter( 'ups_sidebar', function ( $default_sidebar ) {

  $sidebars = get_option( 'ups_sidebars' );

  foreach ( $sidebars as $id => $sidebar ) {
    if (  x_is_shop() || x_is_product_category() || x_is_product_tag() || x_is_product() ) {
      if ( array_key_exists( 'index-shop', $sidebar ) && $sidebar['index-shop'] == 'on' ) {
        return $id;
      }
    }
  }

  return $default_sidebar;

}, 9999 );

Hello Houston,

Please have your code updated and use this instead to have a sidebar in your blog index and on single post;

//customsidebar for the products page
if ( ! function_exists( 'x_get_content_layout' ) ) :
  function x_get_content_layout() {

    $stack          = x_get_stack();
    $content_layout = x_get_option( 'x_' . $stack . '_layout_content', 'sidebar-content' );

//    if ( $content_layout != 'full-width' ) {
      if ( is_home() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_blog_layout', 'sidebar' );
        //$layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        $layout = $content_layout;

      } elseif ( is_singular( 'post' ) ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_post_layout', true );
        //$layout = ( $meta == 'on' ) ? 'full-width' : $content_layout;
        $layout = $content_layout;
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio() ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_portfolio_layout', true );
        $layout = ( $meta == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $meta;
      } elseif ( is_archive() ) {
        if ( x_is_shop() || x_is_product_category() || x_is_product_tag() || x_is_product() ) {
          $layout = 'sidebar-content';
        } else {
          $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_archive_layout', 'sidebar' );
          $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        }
      } elseif ( x_is_product() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_bbpress() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_bbpress_layout_content', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
      } elseif ( x_is_buddypress() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_buddypress_layout_content', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
      } elseif ( is_404() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } else {
        $layout = $content_layout;
      }
//    } else {
//      $layout = $content_layout;
//    }

      if ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-content-sidebar.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'content-sidebar';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-sidebar-content.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'sidebar-content';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-full-width.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      }

    return $layout;

  }
endif;

Hi there,

Please change it into this,

 function x_get_content_layout() {

    $stack          = x_get_stack();
    $content_layout = x_get_option( 'x_' . $stack . '_layout_content', 'sidebar-content' );

//    if ( $content_layout != 'full-width' ) {
      if ( is_home() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_blog_layout', 'sidebar' );
        //$layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        $layout = 'sidebar-content';

      } elseif ( is_singular( 'post' ) ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_post_layout', true );
        //$layout = ( $meta == 'on' ) ? 'full-width' : $content_layout;
        $layout = $content_layout;
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio() ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_portfolio_layout', true );
        $layout = ( $meta == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $meta;
      } elseif ( is_archive() ) {
        if ( x_is_shop() || x_is_product_category() || x_is_product_tag() || x_is_product() ) {
          $layout = 'sidebar-content';
        } else {
          $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_archive_layout', 'sidebar' );
          $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        }
      } elseif ( x_is_product() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_bbpress() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_bbpress_layout_content', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;

      } elseif ( is_404() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } else {
        $layout = $content_layout;
      }
//    } else {
//      $layout = $content_layout;
//    }

      if ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-content-sidebar.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'content-sidebar';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-sidebar-content.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'sidebar-content';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-full-width.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      }

    return $layout;

  }

Thanks!

Excellent, that works. One last item, it still does not show on the POST page, just the index page. 🙁

Also, this code prevents the sidebar that shows up in the STORE to revert to the blog sidebar when viewing products.

Hello There,

Sorry if it didn’t quite resolve the issue. There is a missing piece of code. Please update it and use this instead:

 function x_get_content_layout() {

    $stack          = x_get_stack();
    $content_layout = x_get_option( 'x_' . $stack . '_layout_content', 'sidebar-content' );

//    if ( $content_layout != 'full-width' ) {
      if ( is_home() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_blog_layout', 'sidebar' );
        //$layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        $layout = 'sidebar-content';

      } elseif ( is_singular( 'post' ) ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_post_layout', true );
        //$layout = ( $meta == 'on' ) ? 'full-width' : $content_layout;
        $layout = 'sidebar-content';
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_portfolio() ) {
        $meta   = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_portfolio_layout', true );
        $layout = ( $meta == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $meta;
      } elseif ( is_archive() ) {
        if ( x_is_shop() || x_is_product_category() || x_is_product_tag() || x_is_product() ) {
          $layout = 'sidebar-content';
        } else {
          $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_archive_layout', 'sidebar' );
          $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
        }
      } elseif ( x_is_product() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } elseif ( x_is_bbpress() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_bbpress_layout_content', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
      } elseif ( x_is_buddypress() ) {
        $opt    = x_get_option( 'x_buddypress_layout_content', 'sidebar' );
        $layout = ( $opt == 'sidebar' ) ? $content_layout : $opt;
      } elseif ( is_404() ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      } else {
        $layout = $content_layout;
      }
//    } else {
//      $layout = $content_layout;
//    }

      if ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-content-sidebar.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'content-sidebar';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-sidebar-content.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'sidebar-content';
      } elseif ( is_page_template( 'template-layout-full-width.php' ) ) {
        $layout = 'full-width';
      }

    return $layout;

  }

Please let us know if this works out for you.
