jetpack mobile removes twenty twelve sidebar widgets & places on bottom

    Before I added a child theme (which added a footer) to my Twenty Twelve theme (https://alwaysaredhead.com), the sidebar widgets were/are not showing up on mobile instead they are moved to the bottom. If I choose full version to be displayed, again with/without the child theme the sidebar widgets are still at the bottom.

    Jetpack said to verify the following: If your widgets are missing on the Mobile Theme, the likely culprit is that your desktop theme does not have a sidebar with a sidebar id of “sidebar-1″ (the id must be exactly “sidebar-1″). To verify this, open your theme files and locate the register_sidebar() function (usually in functions.php). Which I did and all is fine.

    When I disabled Jetpack, the widgets are still appearing at the bottom, again, it does not matter whether or not I have the child theme activated.

    I would like the sidebar widgets to appear at the side. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

  • Which page(s) is this happening on – I don’t see the problem – it’s very likely unclosed or extra tags – not related to JetPack at all.

    EDIT – sorry I read your question again – are you only talking about on mobile?

    It is happening on all pages on mobile, I’ve tried both Blackberry & Iphone. The main sidebar widgets with/without the child theme, with/without jetpack are at the bottom displayed either vertical/horizontal. I think it looks terrible.

    That’s how twentytwelve works by default – sidebars go below main content on mobile devices. If you don’t like that, you CAN modify the CSS – but that’s fairly involved. You might be better off finding another theme that is not responsive.
