Hi
I cannot seem to get my left sidebar to appear on either pages or posts. Wondering if you can see an issue?
Hi there,
i cant see the site as i am outside of Canada, ill have one of my colleagues take a look.
In the meantime there are several controls for displaying Sidebars:
1. In the Customizer > Layout > Sidebars:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/sidebar-layout-overview/
2. Using a Layout Element found in Dashboard > Appearance > Elements:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/
Check both of those, if #1 is set up correct then there may be a #2 layout element that is removing them.

Sorry about that. I've provided a link to our Dev server, same issue.
I'm aware of the customizer and element controls but I can't seem to find the issue in either of those (or via custom css).
Hi Cecelia,
I don't see a left sidebar that has been activated on the page you linked.
1. Could you go to customizer > layout > sidebar, and check what the sidebar layout is set to?

2. Go to the page editor, check the layout meta box, see what the sidebar layout is set there:

3. Go to Appearance > elements, check if there's a layout element disabled sidebars.
Let me know :)

I seem to have found the issue. There is a conflict with another plugin (GravityView). All good.
Glad you figured it out :)
