My Pages Sidebar 2 wont work

    Hi,

    Using Worpress with Gutenberg.
    I use a Self Hosted wordpress and Ascende Theme (Kadence theme).
    You can see the website in question via my Profile avatar. In menu, just pick page

    I ONLY use the default Primary Sidebar for my blog.
    I therefore created a Sidebar 2, via Theme Options.
    In the Sidebar2 I created, I chose to have NO Widget in the Sidebar2.

    (Ps. At this time I thought only to use the Sidebar 2, to be able to quickly left align the pages, that are not the blog, so it looks better. but I also like to make it worrk, because I might get a client I create a website for, using this theme. and might need to be able to use at least two individual sidebars, for various pages.)

    But, it doesnt seem to work.

    In Gutenberg Right hand side, A wordpress page, I chose Sidebar Yes, and Sidebar 2.

    But the pages neither get more narrow, nor do they seem to have the Sidebar 2 in action. Because text still flow all over the page width.

    Can the reason be that I dont attached any widget to the sidebar2?

    Thanks in advance for any tips and ideas on how I can have this work.

    Stefan

    Solved it!

    Here is how I solved it.
    In “Theme Options”, I chose “Page Settings”. And in “Single Page Sidebar Default” chose “Sidebar Layout”.

    Beneath it, I picked “Choose a Default Sidebar for your Single Pages”, and changed from “Primary Sidebar” to the custom made “Sidebar 2”.

    To double check, I also looked in the “Blog”, and saw that it kept the “Primary Sidebar” as expected.

    So, people of the world, its all good!

    Thanks for listening/reading, and hope this help others as well.

    Hi Kevin,

    Thanks!

    What I saw, was that my Portfolio galleries, with my illustration and design gallery work, I placed them on regular Pages. (I had that set up like thaat from previous design/theme), and now have to make those Portfolio pages with galleries, on Portfolio pages instead.

    So, I for time being (until tomorrow) I jus disabled my setting. And make it enable again when I recreated the gallery pages into Portfolio pages iinstead.
