Since this looks like a rather new blog, would it be easier to just reinstall everything again? I know that sounds like a bit over-kill, but if the problem exists on two different themes yet in different forms, then it might be a problem with one of the WP core files.
I am no pro, but I think I would try and upload all new files minus the wp-config file. I see that the site that is supposed to be offering you support has closed their support forums. Not really a good sign.
Ok, just did a re-install and the same problem is happening.
check it out http://www.constipationinbabies.net
using the default theme, the behaviour you reported (no sidebar in single post view) is normal and intended.
no idea with the other theme. sometimes it is the content – the posts – that break a theme, although your blog is empty.
you also didn’t mention the name of the theme.
right now, everything looks fine 😉
ok so how do I include the sidebar thats in the homepage to the single posts?
you start with header.php:
change from this:
<?php
// Checks to see whether it needs a sidebar or not
if ( empty($withcomments) && !is_single() ) {
?>
#page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbg-<?php bloginfo('text_direction'); ?>.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }
<?php } else { // No sidebar ?>
#page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbgwide.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }
<?php } ?>
to this:
#page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbg-<?php bloginfo('text_direction'); ?>.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }
then single.php:
change this:
<div id="content" class="widecolumn" role="main">
into this:
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn" role="main">
and the change this:
<?php get_footer(); ?>
into this:
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
do the same two steps ( widecolumn –> narrowcolumn; and add get_sidebar) for:
– archives.php,
– image.php,
– links.php.
this should be all 😉
