Sidebar on Pages in Twenty-Eleven?

  • Posted by Maura A. Smale (she/her) on May 2, 2013 at 3:35 pm

    Hi everyone,

    I’m working on a site in twenty-eleven that has a blog as the homepages and several additional static pages. Right now the sidebar widgets are only displaying on the homepage (blog), and not on the static pages. Does anyone know if there’s a way to display the sidebar on Pages as well as the Blog in twenty-eleven?

    Thanks in advance for any advice!
    Best,
    Maura

    In Twenty Eleven I think the default page template is full width; you should be able to select a sidebar template on those static pages and that should pull in your widgets.

    You have to change the template for the page to “Sidebar Template”

    Click on All Pages, and click on the ‘quick edit’ link under the page you wish to change the template. You should see the option to change the template there.

    Perfect, thanks so much Luke and Carlos! I’m slightly blushing as that’s a very easy fix. 🙂
