Block Widget to Appear in One Category

Hi,

You can use this code in loop.php file like this: http://screencast.com/t/lI3oL0TV0O6
Replace the ‘207’ with your category ID in which you would want the block to be showed. Also use the do_shortcode() function to add the block widget as you like, just replace the short-code from my example with your own.
Hope this helps!
Here is the code I used:

if  (is_category('226')) {
        echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][td_block9 sort="random_posts" limit="5"][/vc_column][/vc_row]');
    }

Thanks

Hi,

Please use http://pastebin.com/ to send me the code from loop.php file so I can check it, should work fine, I have tested this, you just need to add this condition in loop.php file and also add your widget short-code into the function and the category ID on which you want the widget to be shown.

Thanks

Hi,

You have to replace this shortcode: http://screencast.com/t/aU7trBlMoEe with your own desired block shortcode then your block will appear there.

Thanks

Hi,

Use page builder: http://screencast.com/t/PfhCn9Y0hzX and customize it like you want, then switch to classic mode view, get the shortcode for it: http://screencast.com/t/NX0r1MLZnfaE and replace the one from here: http://screencast.com/t/aU7trBlMoEe

Thanks

Hi,

I have checked your site, everything works fine, you can click the images/ titles/ “continue” button, all work fine.

Thanks for the message!

Hi,

You don’t need to add the block widget into an text widget like you did here: http://screencast.com/t/Hn48Ivn1S9VI
You just add the block into the sidebar and customize it, like this: http://screencast.com/t/56Uk7BaDor
Make sure you add the block the right way.

Thanks

Hi,

If you need that widget to appear only in that category follow this steps:

First remove the code I provided before to add an widget using short-codes, this code adds this block from the bottom of the category page: http://screencast.com/t/TH9vXkb1
After this create a new sidebar like this: http://screencast.com/t/qDp0rEFACe
Then go to appearance > widgets and add the block widget you want to the newly created sidebar, like this: http://screencast.com/t/bBb3sqdpzIS
After you have done all this go to theme panel > categories to the category you want to add the sidebar at and select the new created sidebar for that category only, like this: http://screencast.com/t/kwyygatOZ
Should work fine after this: http://screencast.com/t/J24VaBjRS

Thanks
