sidebar – equix

    Anyone with indept knowledge of the Equix theme who knows how to display the full sidebar on all the pages througout the theme/site? There’s an extensive sidebar on the front page, but on all other pages this sidebar is either non-present or reduced to only a few elements (the default ones, I reckon).

    I posted a topic on the same matter in How-to and Troubleshooting, but I’m hoping the post will attract more attention here. Sorry for the double post, but I’m really anxious to resolve this (and get my blog up and running).

    If you take a look at my site, blasert.net, you’ll see an extensive sidebar on the front page and I’d like to have all the elements within this sidebar to show on all pages. If it’s even doable, that is. You’ll also notice that the theme is somewhat modified style-wise.

    I am not familiar with that theme, but in many themes you can find several if_statements in the sidebar.php code. If you want the same sidebar all the time, you should delete those lines.

    I only see these two if_statements in my sidebar.php:


    <?php
    if ( is_home() || is_page() ) { ?>
    <?php
    if (function_exists('wp_theme_switcher')) { ?>

    Also, some themes call for sidebar items from the index.php only. For example the last part of the main page calls for links and catagories while the sidebar only calls for recent posts and calander. Tegether you get all the items but separately they each call a couple items. It may also be called from the header or footer so check them all. If this is the case, just move the parts to the side bar.

    To get the sidebar to appear in on all posts, do the following:

    In the sidebar.php, change

    <?php
    if ( is_home() || is_page() ) { ?>

    to

    <?php
    if ( is_home() || is_page() || is_single() ) { ?>

    In single.php, change

    <div class="wcol"><!-- Begin of the wide column -->

    to

    <div class="ncol"><!-- Begin of the narrow column -->

    and then add <?php get_sidebar(); ?> above the similar command to get the footer.

    Hope this helps

    I am using Equix V11. I moddified it to look as it does right now in my site and I had to modify the sidebar a lot as you can see ( http://www.mangareviewer.com ).

    What you need to do is open the page.php file

    Pages and posts have different sidebar codes. The code for the sidebar in a page is inside the file page.php while the code for the posts are in sidebar.php

    So if you want all of your pages to have the same sidebar just modify page.php it is under the <div class=”sidebar”> should be line #2. If you want your posts and your pages to have the same sidebar just copy one sidebar code to the other file and you are done.
