[Resolved] Removing widgets doesn't work on post page

[Dariusz]

Hello,

I have got 4 widgets active in footer section of the front static page.
I have got 2 subpages with widgets switched off – working correctly.

Now I created a post page and there the problem started.
It keeps on showing footer widgets while they are set to 0.

Interesting is that when clicked the post to full open widgets disappear.

How can I remove the widgets from post page only?

Hi there,

By default WordPress ignores all meta boxes on index pages (blog, archive pages)

Try this CSS to remove footer widgets:

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

Adding CSS: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/

Let me know.

Hello Leo,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I added CSS to the post page but it didn’t help.
Same with adding to the post.

Would be grateful for any other tips

Best regards,

Dariusz

Hello Leo,

I entered CSS using customizer option now and it worked!. Thank you for your help!

Simple CSS meta box won’t work on index pages (blog) either.

So anything for the main blog page needs to be entered in global editor.

Glad you figured out!
