Need sidebars to appear on non-theme pages

Hi – Wondering if there is a standard method to have some of our sidebars appear on pages that are not originally part of the Newspaper theme? For example, we are using plugins like GeoDirectory, WooCommerce, etc., which all create a few pages (or more) dynamically. Trying to keep the style of the site consistent so hoping to include sidebars where necessary but we can’t “edit” those pages in the admin panel with Visual Composer (or anything)

Also, would like to know how to control which sidebar appears on other 3rd party plugin pages since I’m not sure which “template” is being used from one to the next. For example, the Calendar plugin displays one type on the main calendar “page” (which is dynamically created) vs. an individual calendar listing. The Contest plug in let’s us create a main page ourselves so we can add a sidebar, but individual entries appear on dynamic pages with a different sidebar.

Would appreciate any feedback on this.

Thanks!

Hello,
You can use plugins that add content to the sidebar. A widget like the one you suggested with the weather, but replacing the whole sidebar is another matter altogether. It will not be an easy job. The theme has no option for it and we cannot make any suggestions on how it can be done. You will probably need to hire a freelancer to implement such an option.
Maybe you can find a plugin that has this option but unfortunately we cannot make any suggestions.
Thank you for your understanding.
