[Resolved] Layout element not working for custom post type

[George]

I have a custom post type that has been created through a plugin and I am applying a Layout Element to show the right sidebar on all single posts. I have set the conditions to display to all single posts of that custom post type but for some reason, the layout is not being applied. It still shows the full-width layout with no sidebars as being applied from the Customizer.

What could be preventing it?

Hi George,

Do you happen to have another Layout Element that might be conflicting?

[George]

No, I only have two header elements, Leo. I deactivated them temporarily, still same issue.

Hi there,

what specific Display Rules are you using ?

[George]

Knowledge Base Article -> All Knowledge Base

Could it be the specific custom post type is missing something?

[David]

What happens if you set the Sidebar to display site wide ?
Try via the Customizer and via the Elements > Entire Site.

[George]

Customizer sitewide:
The sidebar displays everywhere apart from the CPT archive and its single posts

Sidebar sitewide from the Layout element (with Customizer sidebar both activated and deactivated):
Same behavior

[George]

Ok, I think the plugin has a sidebar functionality that overrides the Elements. I will play around with it and come back or close the ticket!

…and sorted.

Thanks!

[David]

Glad to hear that!
