Hi,
The issue comes from here: http://screencast.com/t/S9KUDcvXm6m
Your configuration for the page should look like this: http://screencast.com/t/bGyZK6Th1
Add a single row then add the elements/blocks you want, if you have any shot-codes you want to use on page you can use text block and add the shot-code like shown in the screenshot to your page.
Adding the block like this will display on two columns, this is the result for my configuration: http://screencast.com/t/KfTlLWcHVayG
Thanks
Yea that work but than i cant have different background on every block like now… i wanted to fix that with “row inside row”, because than i can use full height sidebar (if i use row after a row than i have a lot of breaks there), and still i cant use sidebar like widgete because than i cant use tabs and other stuff there and i have three column block…
I hope that I explain my problem better now 🙂
Hi,
You can also add background for blocks if you use them without a row, you don’t need to place the block into a row to set a background for it, and you can use custom css to add a background.
If you still want to use the blocks in rows you can try it this way:
* add each block inside a row.
* In case of the sidebar you can build it from dashboard > appearance > widgets and for the elements you can’t add from there to the sidebar you can use a text widget and add them via short-codes. To get the short-code as you like use page builder to build the widget(tabs/blocks/…) then add the shot-code inside an text widget and into your sidebar.
* to make the short-codes work into the text widget just add this filter into functions.php file: add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
* after you did this just use the Page Template Settings to use a sidebar and use the one you created.
Thanks
