I’m following up on this request. Show sidebar on blog index and posts with global layout of full-width
I’m working on the blog index page. I used the code referenced in that thread and I can see that the sidebar is in the layout but I can’t get it to display.
What I’m really trying to accomplish is a three column layout with a sidebar left, content center, sidebar right. I got that working on the home page here using essential grid in the center and a global block on the right, but when I try to display an excerpt or post content with the essential grid skin, the page just freezes up and won’t load at all. So I decided to try it on the blog index page where I know the posts with excerpt already displays like I want it to. I think though I can’t edit the blog index to add a global block on the right side of the page without doing custom development correct? That essential grid plugin does everything under the sun but it’s a resource hog so I’d like to not use it if possible.
Any ideas or help would be wonderful. Thanks.
