[Resolved] Sidebars Widgets

[Kevin]

Hey Guys 🙂

i have trouble with my sidebars…every Time I’m allow sidebars – automatically the search widget and archive Widget is activated an I can’t prevent that.

I look in Customizer-widgets-settings and Designs-Widgets-settings, nothing found.
But if I activated a random Widget on the left or right sidebar, these two Widgets gone.

Where is the Problem?

Thx 🙂

Hi Kevin,

When there’s nothing in your sidebar, some default widgets show up in there to fill the empty space (Archives, Search etc..). They’re simply fallbacks. When you add a widget to the widget area, those fallbacks will disappear and your added widget will show up.

Let me know if this answers your question.

Hey Leo thx for the answer 🙂

yes…but I want a sidebar without any Widgets(fallbacks) is that possible?

Why not just change the sidebar layout to no sidebars?: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/sidebar-layout/

Let me know 🙂

Hey Tom 🙂

I want a right Sidebar with Widgets and clear left sidebar. So the content is centered.

Sidebar Content Sidebar + Widgets

Hmm there’s probably a better way of achieving that. Can you show me an example site that has the look you’re going for?

[Kevin]

Hello Tom thx for your help. I don’t find any Site 😛

For this Time I change the layout to “one Container” and change the width of the container 🙂 that works for me. But now the Container is “connected” with the header. It’s now possible to separate them?

thx Tom 🙂

Try this:

.site-header {
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}

[Kevin]

Thx Tom 🙂 will try it

[Tom]

No problem 🙂
