Where to edit the contents of a sidebar

Hi,

I found how to specify a default sidebar to use in for example the Bog and posts template (theme panel – template settings – Blog and post template – custom sidebar + position).

I can select a sidebar in the drop down list and I can even insert the name of another sidebar I want to create. But…. thats all I find. A way to enter a name.

I searched a lot and can’t seem to find where I can actually EDIT a sidebar of fill a newly created one with content.

Where can I find this please ?

Useful to read the docs for wordpress to learn how it works.
You add sidebar widgets under appearance > widgets

Dear Chris,

I did really search quite well. But I searched in the theme settings and that isn’t right. Looking for sidebar and wordpress in google seemed to give me almost all links to plugins, which in my opinion was also not the way to do it. I actually allready made a complete responsive wordpress theme myself in the past, so I’m not that bad at wordpress. Just didn’t use widgets before because in our previous self built template we built in the sidebar in the theme itself.

I also found out how to do this editing about 2 hours after I posted here, so I kept looking for solution. The big problem is you can’t delete your question here once you posted it.

It’s good to know that these sidebars are setup using widgets. Now I’ll know where to look for it.

OK, no problem. You can simply type in another reply and let us know you found the solution. Most people do so.
Glad you figured it out. The answer was in the docs here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/sidebars-tutorial/

Thank you!
