[Resolved] Different sidebars for category archives and blog posts

[Suggie]

Hi guys.

I’d like to have a different right sidebar show up depending on which category archive page is showing, as well as depending on which blog post is showing. For example,

– Current sidebar is a shortcode of a custom Elementor sidebar
– Sidebar currently includes “Latest Posts” section that shows posts from all categories
– I’d like to have a Travel sidebar that shows “Latest Travel Posts” in the Travel category archive page as well as on any post that is labeled as Travel category. And the same for the Eat category archive/posts related to Eat category.

I saw this info on using a sidebar filter and was wondering if my issue could be handled similarly? Could I use different shortcodes depending on category? https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/different-sidebar-layout-on-different-category-archives/

Thanks!

Hi there,

You would need a plugin like this: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/content-aware-sidebars/
