Unlimited Sidebars

Recommended Posts

davidcosgrove

I am developing a website (it is password protected per the client) StemCellWatchdog and we have 13 pages. On each page we need to have a different primary sidebar that has a different quote/YouTube video. I can only see that there are 4 sidebars available, but I need 13. I have tried the plugins Multiple Sidebars and Sidebar Generator but they do not seem to work with the framework. Please help! Thank you very much! David

Hi Jenny, Thanks very much for the tip - I've installed Widget Logic but I do not understand how I can create 9 additional sidebars with this - I need to be able to create and assign 9 more sidebars. Is there any other method you could suggest? Thanks again for your help!

Hi Jenny, Just to be clear - I need to be able to assign 13 individual widget sidebars (primary, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 13) to the main Sidebar 1 template section. I've been working with Widget Logic but it doesn't allow me to create all the other widgets I need. Thanks again for your help!

You didnt read the widget logic facts ;) It allows you to use native wordpress conditionals. Lets say you have ONE sidebar, primary for example, now add 13 widgets to that sidebar, now each widget you add the logic code: http://screencast.com/t/6ON7TaT8HW Here i am using is_page() and telling it to only show this widget on the lorem-ipsum page.

Hi Simon, I apologize for not following - how do I create the 13 unique widgets though? Sorry for being dense. Thanks for your help!
