Simple Sidebars no longer workin on SPI Pro theme

    I am using SPI Pro theme for Genesis and have used Genesis Simple Sidebars for years to create custom sidebars on posts. Not sure when it depreciated but I am no longer able to adjust the sidebar of the post in the edit screen. The dropdown only gives me the option of “default” sidebar. Interestingly onlder posts sometimes still show what is now an “inactive” sidebar in the WP backend.

    This is the message I am getting in the customizer:

    “Your theme has 11 other widget areas, but this particular page doesn’t display them. You can navigate to other pages on your site while using the Customizer to view and edit the widgets displayed on those pages.”

    When I go to widgets in the widget area of WP many old widgets show as inactive sidebars.

    Just a bunch of funny behavior in general. I am sure it is related to my old and no longer updated Genesis WP theme and hoping somebody has a solution to make this work again.

    Thanks from a long-time Genesis user.

  • Hi Stephen,

    I have tested the Genesis Simple Sidebars and SPI Pro and I am not able to replicate the issue you are having. I am able to select any of the sidebars I have created and they are displaying correctly.

    Have you checked for a plugin conflict? I would disable all plugins except for Genesis Simple Sidebars then clear all caching and test. IF the plugin is working correctly you can start enabling the other plugins and test as you go. If you have any scripts added you will want to remove those and test also.

    Kind regards,
