Two sidebars – extra templates

    Hi Alex,

    I absolutely love your theme. I have two ideas how it can be made even better:

    1) Page Magazine template – keep left column for blog and single post view:

    It’s really great that I can put Archive, Tags and Categories widgets for posts on the left and that I can use the right sidebar for content and tools that are important for all pages of my site (with default template). But when a visitor clicks on a post the single post opens with default theme so the visitor doesn’t see Archive, Tags and Categories widgets. Same is when a visitor clicks on a category. The list with category related blog posts open with default theme (no widgets on the left). So the visitor must go back on front page if he wants to choose another archive date, category or tag.

    It would be awesome if you could provide a template (for optional choice) that keeps the left part of the Page Magazine template for blog posts and single post view.

    2) Default template – two sidebars

    For some pages it would be great to have a second sidebar (on the left) where I can put widgets. It would be awesome if you could provide a template (for optional choice) with two sidebars.

    Thanks again for your work. I really appreciate it!

    Hi friend,

    With latest version 1.2.3:
    I’ve added new option “layout three cols for single post”.
    Please config your site with Customize > General Setting > Single post

    Hi Alex,

    great! Small issues concerning the three columns layout:

    1) Single Post view: The titles of the widgets in the left column look a little weird. There are two lines and the coloured part of the lines is not aligned left (like for the other widgets in the right column). Maybe it would be better to keep the layout of the Page Magazine template for the left column (titles underlayed with diagonal lines). And I think it would be better to let the breadcrumb begin over the left column.

    2) The three column layout option works for the single post view but not for a list of posts (for example several posts of a certain category or for a certain tag).

    It’s really fun to take part in the development of the theme and I’m so much appreciating that you put so much work and creative energy to it.

    Hi Alex,

    thank you so much for the yesterday’s theme update! It’s great that now I can display the author without biographical information in single post view and that I can display category info only once.

    The improvements discussed in this thread aren’t included yet:

    1/ Better styling for widget titles in left column (single post view), maybe same styling as for Page Magazine template

    2/ Breadcrumb start above left column in three cols layout

    3/ Add three cols template for pages (with possibility to select two cols or three cols for each page individually)

    4/ Add (optional) three cols layout for blog-post

    Don’t want to bother you – just wanted to know if they will be included with next update.

    Again thank you so much!
