To do this, there are two steps:. A sidebar template contains the code for your sidebar. WordPress recognizes the file sidebar. This means that you can organize your files with each sidebar in its own template file.
This should be inserted into the template file where you want the sidebar to display. To load the default sidebar. You may want your sidebar to be populated with some widgets by default. Great tutorial…only one question.
How would I code that? Even my other site pages have different content to my blog. This was achieved by creating a number of different page templates and assigning them appropriately. This is a great tutorial, but everytime I edit my theme functions file I end up with an error message.
Thanks Nicole. I checked out your site and noticed the error. One thing you might want to double check is that you have semicolons ; on the end of all your PHP statements. Let me know how you go. Hi Anna. This was exactly what I was looking for — I wanted my sidebar to divided into div class sections with a nice rounded corner on each little box, and each box would contain different widgets. Your code worked perfectly for what I wanted — keep up the good work!
Bottom line, What am I doing wrong? I found his tutorial very useful, and I have an extra sidebar. You do need to know a little about the inner workings of WP to get this to work, even if it is not too difficult. Thanks Jai, That is exactly what I thought. It would so easy to just get another theme that has what I want, but I have put in a lot of time and learning on mine, so someday i will get it all added. Sometimes a tutorial cannot apply on every theme since every theme is built differently.
I will advise you to take the help of a good coder because I think your theme needs more work. People have definitely benefited and have been able to add an extra sidebar. So, please do not make superficial comments and spread hate just because you do not have the calibre to understand a tutorial.
I have seen your expertise elsewhere. The theme I used has only one sidebar on the right. I want to add another one on the left for ads. Once you find a suitable place,.
Let try this approach to some help. If after all steps are done, should Ibe able to use just the new sidebar2. I did add both Templatepath statements to it. I think the no display is really the added CSS for the left new sidebar. If you look at my site, I adjusted the other columns to the right, but something in the new DIV is not right yet.
Thanks Jai, yes I did. Funny thing is my index. JIM :- Did you actually include the sidebar in your code Jai, i know i am the last person to see and look at this tutorial, but I would really like to get it installed for ads on the left side.
I spent last night adjusting my online site to make room on the left. That in itself for a non GURU took hours. After trying to get things to add the sidebar it just will not display for me.
In the design-widgets drop down box, I do have sidebar 1 and sidebar 2. I added a calendar to sidebar 2 but no display.
Can this tutorial also put the new sidebar on the left. My site has 2 columns. One in center for post and a sidebar on the right. Currently I am learning how to setup a wordpress blog, its amazing how much resources there is on the web. Thank you for this information. I have Stumbled this page for others to find. Thank you. Took less than an hour to put in a second bar, and place it nicely.
Can somebody point me in the direction of a good one? This was exactly the how-to information I was looking for and you explained it perfectly. Now I can fix my themes! You left out the part about how to get the additional column in the right alignment. Everything works up to that point.
How do I fix this? I recently bought it a while ago and can not for the sakes of me , get any kind of sidebar running on it. Can u help us? There is no file like to be found anywhere. I have a theme with two sidebars at the right.
Is it possible with your method a third sidebar, at the left corner? Question: what about the header. I have a flash header and would like to know if the second sidebar will go under the header if i extend it or go beside it? Chris :- I had that problem too but looks like that there is a drop down that you can switch between the 1 and 2nd column. I have been looking for a tutorial, however I cannot see the codes you posted in your post I can only see the first part of codes;.
But the rest are just blue boxes with nothing. Is it a problem on my end? Great mod — and all successfully changed although the problem I have now is that the widgets I use in the admin for sidebar 2 do not show on the sidebar 2.
I noticed this post was published in Nov Does the trick work with new versions of WP? Or will things go wrong when I update it later? IF you are getting a parse error.. Any suggestions? Hi, I am using the GreyLagoon theme and after going through tutorial step by step, I get this error message:. Using wp 2. This was exactly what I was looking for but could you perhaps elaborate or do a tutorial on the following for we novices brave enough to attempt this? However, only the widgets from side Sidebar 2 show up they show on the right hand side of the screen.
How can I make the widgets from Sidebar 1 show up on the left hand side of the screen? Hi, Just following the post, which seemed easy enough. I am using one of your themes Kelabu and wanted to add a right side bar. All was good until the editing of the index. I cannot get the right side bar to appear. Can you help me any further? Nice Article. I have a post on my blog about why having two sidebars can benefit the site in terms of ease of navigation and advetisement revenue.
Thanks for article! Very easy to understand and I install additional sidebar to my blog in 5 minutes! I followed step by step…. Your tutorial on how to add a sidebar literally did save me from switching from a theme I love! I have just one question. How can I make it so the sidebar will be on the left side of my blog?
Thanks so much for this tutorial-I needed an easier version than the one I was using as reference some folks just make things harder than they have to be your method really helped me out. Just increase the number to 3 in the functions. Then you will have to create three sidebar files and include them in your index. This number also changes in the sidebar file code accordingly.
