Title: Sidebar Last modified: June 23, 2019 --- # Sidebar * Resolved [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/) * I have a problem that I need to get fixed before going Live. * When I create an event to test the system, it works well. That is, until I open the published event. I then has a page sidebar showing my widgets, and no way to get rid of it. I’ve removed them in all the Events pages using the page editor and they dont show in the event preview before submitting, but they cannot be removed on published events for some reason as there is no page editor available. * The link provided shows what I mean. * The bottom image shows how it looks in Event Preview. The top one shows the published event, which is distorted and crushed into a small space. * How can I remove this without removing all sidebars from all pages? * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsidebar-195%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 23 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/page/2/?output_format=md) * [Hitesh Makvana](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hiteshmakvana/) * (@hiteshmakvana) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11665702) * Hi [@unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) , * Sidebar is always loading from theme. If you can’t get ride on the side bar please create custom single event template which allow you to load from your template. Please follow this [https://www.wp-eventmanager.com/documentation/single-event-listing-page/](https://www.wp-eventmanager.com/documentation/single-event-listing-page/) * I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any query. * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11668065) * I dont understand any of that. It makes no sense at all to me. I dont even have a file called “single.php” that I can find. * [Hitesh Makvana](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hiteshmakvana/) * (@hiteshmakvana) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11669212) * Hi [@unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * Your theme doesn’t have then you can create new file single-event_listing.php. Your theme’s default architecture is to show widget on each page. In that case we can’t manage your sidebar from plugin. * I hope you understand the process of theme and sidebar. Please add custom single template for event listing so you can change the structure of the single event listing page. * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11669543) * No, I do not understand any of that. I’m not a coder. I have NO CLUE on how do do want you ask. * As for blaming the theme, I’m sorry, but the theme is not the problem. Your plugin generates the listing, which the content can be edited, but without the page attributes part. * [Hitesh Makvana](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hiteshmakvana/) * (@hiteshmakvana) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11672793) * Hi [@unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) , * I thing you misunderstood the process. Sidebar which is contain organizer which is coming from the plugin. For widget sidebar which contain meta and recent blogs which is coming from the theme. * If you just create file called **single-event_listing.php** and add the following code inside that file [https://www.wp-eventmanager.com/documentation/single-event-listing-page/](https://www.wp-eventmanager.com/documentation/single-event-listing-page/) * I hope this helps. For theme widget you need to disable from the theme. Do you want to remove organizer information sidebar ? * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11673425) * No. YOU misunderstand. * 1. I do not understand anything on that page you keep posting. Thats for experienced coders who know how wordpress works, and is experienced with coding. I am no one of these people. * 2. You page, generated by the plugin does not have page attributes section to hide the sidebar when in edit mode. The theme allows the sidebar to be turned off (hidden) in all other pages, but not on your single even listing. This is a plugin issue, not a theme one. * My suggestion? * Code in the Page Attributes table into your single event listing page (same place as other pages, bottom right). That allows everyone, no matter what theme, to decide whether to show it or not. Then release an update. * You already have an amazing plugin here, but that sidebar is a problem that will not go away unless you take action to allow us to hide it or not. * [Hitesh Makvana](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hiteshmakvana/) * (@hiteshmakvana) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11674751) * Hi [@unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) , * We are working on new design. We have changed the layout of single event page. * If organizer section is making issue it will be resolved in next update. * I hope it helps. * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11681215) * That would be a good start, thanks. * I would STILL add in Page Attributes as well for the backend. Allow users to decide whether to show a sidebar or not. If you can write such as good plugin, it should be easy for you to add in. * [Hitesh Makvana](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hiteshmakvana/) * (@hiteshmakvana) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11681364) * Hi [@unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) , * In new design we have removed organizer details as sidebar. In sidbar it will only show button to register and other addon buttons. You can temporary see new design details here [http://wp-eventmanager.com/customdemo/event/startupjobsfair/](http://wp-eventmanager.com/customdemo/event/startupjobsfair/) * Please let us know if you have any suggestions. * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11682634) * The date, time, etc is still there as a sidebar tho. * That would look better below the event details. Perhaps between “Event Overview” and “Ticket Information” * I also think you miss my point about adding the remove sidebar table I suggested adding in. I mean the theme sidebar, not your own one. We need that option when editing the single even page. The plugin will look good in many themes with the theme sidebar still there, and no way of removing it. * Surely, it’s only a case of copying it over from the WordPress page, into your own page? * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11683344) * Sorry, my last post was badly written.

I would like to explain the sidebar which is given in our plugin will not override any theme’s default widget sidebar. * We have added sidebar which is not actually sidebar. it is the small structure of our plugin to manage all the buttons and data on the event. If we show all the buttons below the event description no one will use this. Also if we put buttons below the description without sidebar structure. I think we are not messing with defaut wordpress theme’s or any other theme’s sidebar. We have just implemented small border between description and registration button. * I don’t think this is sidebar which affect any theme. It might be possible in old design because it is already bit big structure required to show single event page. * If you have widget on your single event page you can show it without any issue as per our new design. * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11684321) * But why do you keep ignoring what I’m saying? * We NEED the option added to single event page to remove the theme sidebar the same way we can on all other pages. * Surely all you need is either a hook to Page Attributes, or copy the code into your file? * I’m at the stage now, that if I can find that code, I’m going to add it myself. Sadly, the page attributes table code is very well hidden in WordPress files. * [Hitesh Makvana](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hiteshmakvana/) * (@hiteshmakvana) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11687400) * Hi [@unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) , * You are keeping asking me same thing that i have already explain in the above reply. * > If you just create file called single-event_listing.php > and add the following > code inside that file [https://www.wp-eventmanager.com/documentation/single-event-listing-page/](https://www.wp-eventmanager.com/documentation/single-event-listing-page/) * This is the simple process to avoid default theme sidebar. In case if you are not developer then please assign this work to your developer. So he can understand the issue is not from the plugin side. * If there is any issue regarding your theme you should have to contact your theme author. I hope you understand the process how theme and page template are rendered in wordpress. * Thank you * Thread Starter [unityscot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/unityscot/) * (@unityscot) * [7 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-195/#post-11687700) * OK, I made a file as you said, and uploaded it to the theme, with get sidebar removed, but it solves nothing. I still have a crushed listing, and a large empty space next to it. * [https://rock.scot/event/solo-acts-testing-again/](https://rock.scot/event/solo-acts-testing-again/) * We DEFINITELY need “Page Attributes” added in the backend. And PLEASE stop saying its a theme issue. Its YOUR page that doesnt have it, while all others do. * Maybe you dont understand what I mean? * Here’s an image from the backened. It clearly shows what missing.
