Deactivate all other plugins and test if the sidebar is showing; if it is still not showing please switch to a default WordPress theme to test for a conflict with a theme. If everything is well, activate one plugin at a time to find the one that causes this. * Please let us know how it went! * Kind regards, Nastia * Thread Starter [tineclaus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tineclaus/) * (@tineclaus) * [8 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-doesnt-show-2/#post-9745294) * Hi, * I did as you asked and turned every plugin out. While doing that i discovered that it is only when going in the backend of the website that the sidebars aren’t wright. If i go to my website online (i turned off the ‘maintenance mode’ for a while) the correct sidebar is showing. Do you know how this can happen? * Thanks! * Greetings, Tine * [Laura – WPMU DEV Support](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpmudev-support8/) * (@wpmudev-support8) * [8 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-doesnt-show-2/#post-9748029) * Hey [@tineclaus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tineclaus/), * I am not sure about the cause, it can be because of caching or maybe some data in the database is corrupted. First, can you check for caching plugins/systems then if still continue can you try to delete all sidebars and recreate them? * Cheers, Oguz * Thread Starter [tineclaus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tineclaus/) * (@tineclaus) * [8 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sidebar-doesnt-show-2/#post-9759864) * Hi, * I deleted all the sidebarsand re-installed them.
