Hi, i am building a site around viral news and buzz content. recently
at the beginning. my sidebar was showing on both pages. but, about a day
ago or so the sidebar stopped displaying on individual posts.
Anyone know why?

i have the sidebar built with the backend editor, WPBakery, and i have
a widget sidebar created. any suggestions? it worked before, but it stopped
for some reason.

take a look at my site for live demo: http://www.bigboxnews.net

my site only displays properly on Desktop at the moment, as i am still setting
up the look for mobile. so, not ads or sidebars show on mobile.

thanks

Jon

Hi,

Check a post which does not display a sidebar, see what it’s sidebar settings are. If you do not set a sidebar manually

Then the post will inherit the sidebar from it’s primary category
https://forum.tagdiv.com/primary-category/

Let’s take this post for example, it does not have a sidebar
http://bigboxnews.net/83-2/
Check if a specific sidebar is set in the post edit screen. It’s primary category would be this one since it is it’s only category
http://bigboxnews.net/category/technology/
Check if the category has a sidebar set, Theme panel->Categories->Per category settings. Be sure to also check if the sidebars actually have widgets in them.

Thanks
