My test URL is here: http://8b3.374.myftpupload.com/
x-theme version is 4.5.2
wordpress is 4.5.2

For the life of me, I can’t figure out how to configure the right sidebar. I definitely don’t want it to reiterate the menu–I would like it to list recent posts, have a search, calendar, etc. Can you help me figure out what I’m missing?

Thanks!
Tara

Hi Tara,

Thanks for writing in! On your admin dashboard navigate to Appearance > Widgets, you will see a Main Sidebar in there, remove the menu widget and populate it with Available Widgets on the left.

Hope it helps, Cheers!

Wonderful, thank you!

One more question: how do I get a thumbnail of the post image to show up beneath the title in the side bar? Also, when I click on the post from the side bar, “Blog” isn’t highlighted in the top nav.

Please advise and thank you again 🙂

Hi there,

Please add a text widget and insert recent posts shortcode :

[x_recent_posts count="2" orientation="vertical"]

Please add following code in Customize -> Custom -> CSS :

.current_page_parent a span {
    border-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.075) !important;
    color: #5abb4e;
}

Hope that helps.
