Help with pages. Want to edit via HTML and admin panel.

    Hi, im making https://www.SikCyde.com.

    I have 2 sidebars on my main page, one on the right (sidebar.php) Which has search and later will have ads. And on the left (sidebar2.php) Which holds pictures and links for the artists. When you click on a picture or the text on the second sidebar (sidebar2.php) it takes you to the individual artists page. BUT what im attempting to accomplish is when i go to that page, the first sidebar (sidebar.php) Will change to the artists own sidebar which will hold links to their youtube, facebook, etc…

    Now the only way i can think of doing this is by making individual pages as a .php instead of with WordPress’s editor, but then i lose the feature to edit the page in wordpress’s admin panel which i cant risk because the artists will have to edit the page themselves later on and they dont know html or php.

    I have a total of 12 pages to make and 12 sidebars to add.

    is this possible?

    Heres an example:
    Go to the site, you will see the hyperlink with “Mr. Liqz” if you click that it takes you to https://www.sikcyde.com/mr-liqz.php which i can then edit to use my sidebar, but i cant edit with the admin panel. Though if i link it to https://www.sikcyde.com/mr-liqz it will be editable via panel, but not html, so i cant change it from sidebar1.php to liqzside.php (liqzside.php is in wp-content).

    Nevermind i got it with a Switch statement

    Anyone else needs help heck out:

    https://w3schools.com/php/php_switch.asp

    My code as an example:

    <?php
$page_title="sikcyde";
switch ($page_title)
{
case "Mr. Liqz":
   include("liqzside.php");
   break;
case "Nige":
   include("nigeside.php");
   break;
case "Big Shot":
   include("bigshotside.php");
   break;
default:
   include("liqzside.php");
}
?>

    My switch is not 100% working, still a good example to give an idea though, I made a separate post about how to fix this HERE
