How to Disable the Sidebar Site Wide ?

Hello,

Your explanation below doesn’t work with the free version of your theme “, You could try it by yourself if you don’t believe us … or do we need to buy the PRO version ?
“The option in the customizer is the global setting. So if you don’t want a sidebar for most of the pages, you would select Content (no sidebars) in the customizer.
Then you can use the metabox options to set a few pages differently if you wish.”

In the past, we tried during days with the help of your “sidebar-layout” article and Google Search but we failed to set up basic sidebars by pages. As said before, We try to achieve : a right sidebar for the Home page and a left sidebar for the Member page.

Please could you try a clear step by step procedure to set up a right sidebar for the Home page and a left sidebar for the Member page ? (see example below)

Step 1 : Theme Customizer : Layout->Sidebars->Sidebar Layout-> choose “(Content, no sidebars)”

Step 2 : Pages->Home page->Sidebars-> choose “Content/Sidebars”

We confirm you that this step by step procedure doesn’t work BECAUSE in the Theme Customizer, there is a Sidebar Site Wide which force all sidebar layouts of all pages (Layout->Sidebars->Sidebar Layout->(Content, no sidebars), therefore there is NO sidebar in all Pages. You could try it by yourself if you don’t believe us …

Thank you & Regards,

Chris

Hello,

We have just tried again with a new site in Localhost and without any plugins to avoid any conflict between your Theme and plugins … We have installed and activated your latest Theme, free version.

I remind you that we want to display a right sidebar for the “Home” page and a left sidebar for the “Member” page

Step 1 : Sidebar Site Wide (Theme Customizer)
Theme Customizer : Layout->Sidebars->Sidebar Layout-> we select “(Content, no sidebars)” and publish it

Step 2 : RIGHT sidebar for the “Home” page
Pages->Home page->Sidebars-> we select “Content/Sidebar” and update the page

Step 3 : LEFT sidebar for the “Member” page
Pages->Member page->Sidebars-> we select “Sidebar/Content” and update the page

Result of the step 1, 2 & 3 :
The “Home” & “Member” pages DON’T display any sidebar.

Please what is wrong and how to set up a right sidebar for the “Home” page and a left sidebar for the “Member” page with a clear and accurate step by step procedure (to avoid any misunderstanding) ?

Thank you & Regards,

Chris
