Hi!
I can’t fine the option to set a custom sidebar per cataegory in the theme panel anymore? Has something changed? I seem to remember it being here and our existing set up with category-specific sidebars appears to still be functioning

Hello, Oli,

Please make sure you have the tagDiv Standard Pack plugin activated, also clear your cache.

Let me know the results!

Thank you!

Ah I see, ok I didn’t notice this had to be separately updated and activated when the theme updates so it was deactivated – thank you!

all good now

Hi Anamaria,

I’m facing the same problem. I tried to set Custom Sidebar per Category, but I can’t find the option.

I can’t find the option for “custom sidebar+position” in the “Theme Panel’s Category” section.

I already have the tagDiv Standard Pack plugin activated. I have tried to deactivate the plugin & reactivate the plugin, but it doesn’t seem to change anything.

my “Theme Panel > Category > Restaurant Category” doesn’t show custom sidebar option.

I checked https://forum.tagdiv.com/sidebars-tutorial/ and the screenshot shows that there should be a “Custom Sidebar” option in the “Theme Panel’s Category” section.

the only place I can find “Custom Sidebar” option is in the “Theme Panel’s Template Setting” section, and I don’t think I can set custom Sidebar per category from here.

you can check the screenshots here: https://imgur.com/a/osxuMxJ

please advise 🙂 thank you.

Hello, @adrianliem,

Can you send me the link to your website?
Please do these steps
1. disable all tagDiv plugins
2. uninstall all tagDiv plugins
3. clear cache (if cache plugin exists)
4. re-install all tagDiv plugins again from Newspaper plugins => https://www.screencast.com/t/WLy01lbc
5. activate all tagDiv plugins
6. clear cache (if cache plugin exists)

Also, make sure your WordPress and plugins are up to date.
Sometimes, the issue can be from a plugin conflict, that’s why, please deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using a cache plugin, deactivate it, clear all cache and try again.

Thank you!

Hi Anamaria,

I just deleted all WordPress, the database, the Newspaper theme, then I fresh installed the whole thing.

my site is blog.garpu.id and I’m using Gourmet Pro demo content.

please see screenshots at https://imgur.com/a/GLd9z9u

when I have installed the Newspaper theme but I haven’t installed the Gourmet Pro demo content, I can see the custom category sidebar at the theme panel.

but after I installed the Gourmet Pro demo content, the “custom sidebar+position” is gone.

I have tried uninstalled the demo content, I can see the custom sidebar option again. and when I tried to install the Gourmet Pro again, the custom sidebar option is gone again.

please advise 🙂 thank you.

edit:
I’m not using any other plugins other than tagDiv’s.
haven’t change options in WordPress as well.

Hello,

When you install a Pro Prebuilt Website, templates for categories, pages, posts, etc. are assigned, like here => https://www.screencast.com/t/cTNKHdBBOIAl for a pro prebuilt website you can create a sidebar using tagDiv Composer, you can check these videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa7GenCHcBU -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6m8-EebnfM0
So, if you want to use a standard template for categories you need to set it to “No Template” => https://www.screencast.com/t/DvfvX5KiaDg and then you will have “custom sidebar+position”

Thank you!
