widgetising sidebar

  • i have a sidebar which has been modified to fit my current website theme. i’ve got the widgetised code from https://automattic.com/code/widgets/themes/ in there for my divs.

    still not working though – what am I doing wrong? Please bear in mind this is my first dabble with php so feeling quite out of my depth!

    anyone spot anything clearly wrong in my code snippet below? I’m pretty lost!

    div=colone should be the main sidebar section – the div title is taken from the current designs of my site

    <div id=”sidebar”>
    <?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’)
    || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>

    <div id=”content”>
    <div id=”bread”>
    <div align=”right”>
    <?php
    if (class_exists(‘breadcrumb_navigation_xt’)) {
    // Display a prefix
    echo ‘Navigation: ‘;
    // New breadcrumb object
    $mybreadcrumb = new breadcrumb_navigation_xt;
    // Display the breadcrumb
    $mybreadcrumb->display();
    }
    ?>
    </div>
    </div>

    <div id=”colOne”>
    <h3>pick our brains </h3>

  • On the page you linked above you should study the non-list sidebar section. Also, did you create the function.php file for your theme?

    thanks, yep I followed the div version of the tutorial and i uploaded the changes suggested to the function.php

    I’m guessing there’s a small error in there somewhere but i don’t really know what i’m looking for

    Since you posted only half of the sidebar code – I don’t know if you have the closing
    <?php endif; ?> where it shouold be.

    NO, do NOT post long code here – use https://wordpress.pastebin.ca to show code!
