I have the same problem only it’s just the home page widgets that are not visible. All other locations for widgets are showing. Is there a fix? and is it because of the upgrade?
did you check about the problem when user need to remember password and use the link at the theme: “ERROR: The password you entered for the username diegojbs is incorrect. Lost your password?”
“Lost your password” link is not wordking well. link on this is like this:
http://mydomain.com/%22http://mydomain.com/sitio/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword\%22
What is the problem with?
I too am having the same issues. After installing the update, My sidebar is broken. I’ve uninstalled every widget, and reinstalled, but it still is not working. Please help!
I see everyone’s having the same issue is me. Will someone please post a resolution? I no longer see a spot for where to place a sidebar for the default blog landing page.
Me too same problem..left/right sidebar in homepage not visible in any case.
The point is that I completely set up my website on this theme, however if we’ll be not able to fix this problem I’ll change theme..
No one has figured out a solution huh? I just started delving into wordpress/bootstore yesterday and have been pulling my hair out trying to get the front page sidebar to work. Well… back to pulling hair and searching for a solution.
This is not a permanent solution but what I did as a work around (which will break on the next update) is to change the home.php as follows:
if ( ! is_active_sidebar( 'blog' ) ) $col_width = 'span12';
change to:
if ( ! is_active_sidebar( 'blog' ) ) $col_width = 'span9';
The problem is the template doesn’t seem to know that the blog sidebar is active. Put you widgets in the blog side bar and this should work.
NOTE: This is specific to the home.php file for the home page. If you are having similar issues with other pages, look at page.php for similar issue. span12 = width 100% so there is no room for the sidebar. You probably didn’t notice it but the sidebar gets wrapped underneath the blogs. Hope this helps.
After just a quick brainstorm. I found the exact problem. The line I gave above says ‘blog’ is the name of the sidebar. It’s not. That line should read ‘sidebar-blog’. This is the correct fix for the home.php. So
if ( ! is_active_sidebar( 'blog' ) ) $col_width = 'span12';
should be:
if ( ! is_active_sidebar( 'sidebar-blog' ) ) $col_width = 'span12';
That worked for me.
Man you’re great, it works!!
Thanks!!
Very nice Nospam2k, thanks a bunch!
My home.php looked like this
if ( ! is_active_sidebar( ‘blog‘ ) ) $col_width = ‘span12’;
else $col_width = ‘span9’; ?>
I changed it to this
if ( ! is_active_sidebar( ‘sidebar-blog‘ ) ) $col_width = ‘span12’;
else $col_width = ‘span9’; ?>
still no widgets :/
I’ve changed the span and anything else I could think of to no avail, will have to move to another theme, any suggestions?
@jmwallace10 there are some sidebards, maybe your widgets are on the wrong one.
