Customization > Layout > Sidebar >
Right now my website has only the content area
But when I am trying to add a sidebar on the right side by changing bellow three options, the whole container or the content area is getting squeezed.
And sidebar is also not appearing, what to do..?Sidebar Layout > Content(No sidebar)
Blog Sidebar Layout > Content(No sidebar)
Single Post Sidebar Layout > Content(No sidebar)November 26, 2020 at 3:09 am #1549151David
StaffCustomer SupportHi there,
the Container width in Customizer > Layout > Container defines the total width of the main container which includes the sidebar width. You would need to increase the width of the Container to suit.
When adding a sidebar you need to add widgets to the sidebar for them to display.

No, it didn’t work, even after changing the container width to 1600 px, the whole content area is still squeezed when I’m trying to add a sidebar, but normally it’s fine.
And one more thing even after adding widgets, the added widgets are not showing in sidebar.
Wish I could send you the screenshots.November 26, 2020 at 7:11 am #1549866David
StaffCustomer SupportCan you first disable your Cache Plugin to make sure you’re are seeing the update changes.
If you can provide a link to where i can see the side bar problem.To send screenshots you must provide us a URL to where you have the image saved, that can be on a Cloudshare drive, your WP Media Library or any Image Sharing service.

Lead DeveloperLead DeveloperHi there,
That looks like there’s a PHP error happening.
Does it continue to happen if you deactivate your other plugins?

Well I’m not using any specific cache plugin. But the Wp Rocket plugin has a clearing cache option, so you want me to deactivate wp rocket? And then I have to check again.!

StaffCustomer SupportTom has asked that you temporarily disable ALL other plugins apart from GP Premium to see if there is a conflict.

Lead DeveloperLead DeveloperYes, you have a PHP error happening on your website. The screen you’re seeing is the screen that WordPress creates when the
wp_die()
function is being used. This wouldn’t be from the theme, so it must be from one of your plugins or custom functions.You need to deactivate those one at a time until the issue is resolved, so we can narrow down what’s causing it.

Thank you so much for pointing out the problem,
I am trying to deactivate each and every plugin and check it again.
But have no idea about the custom function or that wp_die..
Again, thank you πNovember 27, 2020 at 10:56 am #1553167Tom
Lead DeveloperLead DeveloperNo problem – if you deactivate everything custom one by one, you should find the culprit. It’s there somewhere! π
