Left sidebar, right sidebar but not both!

[bongobong]

Hey there,
My left sidebar displays, my right sidebar displays but when i try and put both on there, it breaks and shows nothing.

I’ve tried swapping the sidebars around and they work so it doesn’t seem like it’s the widgets.

Have a look. On the page i’ve linked to, there are two sidebars (left and right).

Apologies if it’s my own css that has messed it up.
Thanks in advance.

Hi

Just tested on my demo and I get the same issue, not sure what’s happened there. Thanks for letting us know! I’ll get the developer to fix this for the next update

Hi there,

Currently there is only meant to be left/right/no sidebar options for a post – will remove the option of selecting both for the next update.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Ah. Damn. This is not the same for portfolios thought, right? Portfolio can have all?

Is there any chance you could include the option of both in posts?

From your point of view, what is teh difference between a portfolio post and a post?
Thanks.

Portfolio items don’t use sidebars as such.

Portfolio items are for work/art etc, posts are for news/journal entries for example.

We don’t have any plans as of yet to introduce 2 sidebars to posts, but may consider again in the future.

Awesome.
Thanks for this.

A few more questions:

1. Is it possible to have one sidebar smaller than the other one? I.e like this: http://www.bluffable.com

2. Would you consider introducing sidebars to the portfolio? Frustrating to not be able to use the benefits of the portfolio (the grid is far far nicer to the post one) because of it not allowing sidebars.

Hi

1. I’m afraid not sorry, not sure if this is something the developer will also look at. But we haven’t had many people request this feature

2. It’s unlikely, the portfolio is for showcasing work, like Ed said, and sidebars are not required. If you choose to use the portfolio type for posts then that’s your decision

Hey Kyle,

Apologies, I didn’t mean to be rude; of course it’s my decision. I’m just trying to make this theme work for me since i love your support and page builder so much.

Are you guys working on a magazine theme? If not, I may have to move to another one for this site but if you are, I will totally hang on. I see you’ve done one before but it was made a while ago and I want all the benefits of your new stuff including your swift page builder.

Hi @bongobong

We aren’t working on one at the moment, although something we’d maybe like to do again in the near future.

You can use Cardinal for a magazine site – but obviously it won’t have dedicated magazine theme features.
