Had a tinker around with the code (running WordPress 4 beta), but looks like it’s too old to easily bring back to life for WordPress 4 ??

Real shame as would like this feature.

In line 140:

var cellLeft = row.insertCell(2);
			removeLink = document.createElement('a');
      		linkText = document.createTextNode('remove');
			removeLink.setAttribute('onclick', 'remove_sidebar_link(\'$name\')');
			removeLink.setAttribute('href', 'javacript:void(0)');

When add sidebar and want to remove it immediately you will redirect to javascript:void(0);

for Fix this bug add this instead of top codes:

var rowc = document.getElementById('sbg_table').rows.length;
			rowc = parseInt(rowc-1);
			var cellLeft = row.insertCell(2);
			removeLink = document.createElement('a');
      		linkText = document.createTextNode('remove');
			removeLink.setAttribute('onclick', 'return remove_sidebar_link(\'$name\','+rowc+');return false;');
			removeLink.setAttribute('href', 'javacript:void(0)');

It’s Done
Good Luck

Since this plugin has not been updated in a while i went bug hunting myself. There are two places in the sidebar_generator.php file that <?= was used. Replacing these with <?php echo instead made everything work for me again.

Is there going to be an update to this to work with the latest versions of WordPress? It would sure be handy. It makes managing sidebars much easier than using Widget Logic. And if I understand right, it doesn’t load all the widgets on every page, like Widget Logic does (it loads all, but only displays those used).

If it won’t be updated, does anyone else know of any good replacements?

How do I change the color of sidebar via CSS. The Sidebars are working fine in 3.3.

But I am not able to find the css class from where I can update the color, etc.

Hi, I am using your plugin and it works fine. Although I would appreciate a possibilty to assign a sidebar to categories, too. I would like to create sidebars for a topic consisting of blog categories as a news feature and pages for static content of this topic.

Thank you for your support.

I guess you allready know, but the generator does not work with wp 3.1

Is there a way to capture the last sidebar used and use that again. I’d like to program the code (in laymens terms) to do the following:

if($selected_sidebar = ‘something’) then use the sidebar that was displayed on the last page
else
….

I have a custom menu that I would like to use on several sidebars and when it is diplayed use the sidebar for the page that it was found on.

Hi

This is nice one. But it is not compatible with wordpress 3.0.1 that i am using it. Please check it and make sure it will compatible with new versions. I hope you will make it as soon as possible.

Thank you for this wonderful plugin. I really like it.

Bye

I just realized that on some of my pages, the default sidebar is being shown despite having another sidebar selected to appear. It seems that all of my main pages are reacting this way. The children of those pages are working fine. Any input on why this is happening?

Thanks!

Just a quick bug on the Sidebar Generator –

If you create a new sidebar and then try to remove it, you get the following error:
“Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because the protocol (javacript) isn’t associated with any program.”

The link for the ‘remove’ action is:
javacript:void(0);

If you refresh the page, this is no longer an issue – This should be a pretty quick/easy fix ??
