show different sidebar on blog page

  • Hi there,

    I have a bit of a trouble with my sidebars:
    I can’t seem to find a way to switch the sidebar on the blog page, which is not my main page. Strange thing is that I don’t even have a sidebar set. When I go to the ‘edit page’ menu’s blog page, the ‘Display Sidebar?’ option is set to ‘No’.

    I can switch the sidebar on home page and single post page just fine, but on the blog site I just get the same one no matter what I set (the primary sidebar), and I can’t find a way to make it disappear either (unless I empty the sidebar’s widgets, but even then, the place of the sidebar stays there instead of switching to fullscreen).

    I tried to switch up options under ‘Blog Category/Archive Defaults’ but the result was the same.

    If anyone has a solution for this, please let me know.

    Thanks,
    Kacsa

  • Hello Kacsa,

    Can you please link to your site so that I can see how it’s currently configured?

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Sorry for the late reply. Giving a link is not so easy, because it’s a site that is in development, plus I really don’t want to give out any info about the site itself, as it’s a somewhat secret project. Also, a lot of things have been changed, it has about a million plugins, half of them are customized, it has around 500 lines of extra css, so there’s way too much to configure.

    Anyway, I checked around the codes and I really didn’t see any way to change the sidebar in that either (only the archives page, which I’m not sure if it’s the same).

    I think I’ll just stick to the solution of using other sidebars on other pages, and just use the primary on the blog and change the widgets in that when I have to.

    Regards,
    Kacsa

    Try this CSS and let me know if it works for you:

    .blog .main {
    width: 100%;
}

    I already tried that, it only makes the sidebar go below the blog content.
    Don’t worry about it, it’s not worth the effort.

    Sorry, I forgot this. You can hide the sidebar with this CSS:

    .blog .kad-sidebar {
    display: none;
}
