[Resolved] Page Over-rides Not working on Posts Page

[Tom S]

Hi Tom

I have the sidebar, footer widget etc page over-rides not functioning issue when I set a page as my “Posts Page”. E.g. The footer widgets are disabled when set to zero on my news page, but reappear when I set “Set Front Page – Posts Page” to the news page I have created for posts. It appears that this is where the override issue is occurring.

Cheers

Hi Tom,

Answered this here: http://generatepress.com/forums/topic/small-issue-with-the-footer-widgets/#post-51901

By default, WordPress ignores any and all metabox entries if the page is set to the display posts.

Recently, I discovered a way to remedy this when using Page Headers, so I’ll be looking to apply the same solution to the other options.

For now, if you’d like to hide the footer widgets on the blog, you can use this CSS:

.blog .footer-widgets {
      display: none;
}

Let me know if you have any other questions 🙂
