Newb Question - Building pages with sections automatically overrides sidebar
1 reply · Started by Dwayne on January 13, 2019
Hello,
Love Generatepress and proud to support a Canadian company :)
I'm not a developer. I'm in the process of creating a content-oriented website and need help figuring out something which is likely simple but I cannot find a fix for it.
Whenever I use sections to build a page, it automatically hides my sidebar, footer, widgets, etc. This problem disappears if I don't use sections.
Any idea what's causing this and how I can customize the look and feel to resemble parts of my site that were built NOT using sections?
Thanks!
Dwayne
Hi there,
Sections are generally used for full width content, so Sidebars get disabled automatically. Youy can add the PHP filter provided here to counter that:
