• I have installed the sidebar tile plugin aswell as added the tag < ?php sem_sidebar_tile(); ? > to my site, activated it and created a page called ‘Sidebar’ and added the content to the page. However all I get is a text: Sidebar | Modify where I want my content of the page ‘Sidebar’ to appear.

    What have I done wrong?

    Thanks!

    did you insert weird things in the sidebar page or something? like, some css to make it disappear?

    No nothing! I just pasted the code in to my sidebar, didn’t alter anything.. Just followed the instructions to 100%

    yes, but, what is the precise content of your sidebar page? your the only site I know of where the content does not appear.

    I only have the tag < ?php sem_sidebar_tile(); ? > in my sidebar.php nothing else. I have also tried adding the tag < ?php sem_sidebar_tile(); ? > directly in my menu on my index.php where I want it to appear with the same result.

    yes, but did you put any content in your sidebar page? could there be a plugin that is interfering? etc. as much as I’d like to help, the details you are giving are not of much help.

    I have _nothing_ else in my sidebar. _Only_ the sidebar plugin tag. There shouldn’t be anything interfering.

    yes, but did you put any content in the sidebar page? because, if you didn’t, seeing no content would be perfectly normal… also, there are a couple of plugins that could interfere due to the usage of globals.

    could you activate the plugin and post a link to the sidebar page for me to see?

    Aziza-
    It sounds like you have the < ?php sem_sidebar_tile(); ? > function in two places – once in the index, and once in the sidebar.php file, which is otherwise empty. You only need it in the one place. I know the semiologic theme has some weird custom stuff, and I don’t know exactly how it works, but I think Denis is right – there has to be some content somewhere, or there’s nothing to display.

    My guess is that you want the < ?php sem_sidebar_tile(); ? > function in the main template, and the sidebar content in the sidebar.php file. Does the semiologic theme have another file for holding the tile contents?

    Can yu have a look at my blog and tell me what the problem is with the side bar. http://www.citywest.org/blog/

    It is ok I worked it out. However how do you put other headings in the sidebar?
