Hi David,

Thanks for the explanation, I’ve got it working now but instead hard-coded the sidebar into the single products template only.

I hope you don’t mind me being upfront but the way the global sidebar option works contradicts the behaviour of all other WP theme’s I have used so far.

A global theme option should not alter a post’s meta on creation, but rather override all posts with a default meta value. Only if a post has a set meta value, the post’s value overrules the global value.

Looking at the code in single-product.php this fix should be very easy for you to make and for a better user experience, I would suggest this featured to be altered as I suggested.

Thanks again for the reply.

Kind regards,

Koen

Hi Ed,

Basically all my existing products (created while the Cardinal theme was active) do not have sidebars, only 1 test product in which we’ve set it manually has a sidebar (Napsack).

Sidebar meta for all products (old and new) is automatically set to ‘No Sidebars’. Maybe this overrules the general sidebar setting in the theme options?

I believe I have attached login details to this thread if you want to check out the CMS.

Kind regards,

Koen

Hi Rui,

That’s very strange, especially because the option is clearly organised under Woocommerce Options -> Product options, not the Shop options.

I think a mistake has been made in the development because under shop Options it has this option: WooCommerce Sidebar Config
Choose the sidebar config for WooCommerce shop/category pages.

And under the Product Options there’s this one: Default Product Sidebar Config
Choose the sidebar config for WooCommerce shop/category pages.

This means the option is either duplicate or a strange sort of option. Surely you can’t expect your customers to go through hundreds of products to manually set the sidebar for each product!?

Could you please offer a solution.

Thanks!

Koen

Hi Rui,

Thanks for your response.

The Napsack is actually the only product that has a sidebar because I’ve set it manually in the product’s meta options. Good catch though 😉

All other products to not have a sidebar (e.g. http://monk.lessormore.nl/shop/product/boeken/espresso-lessons-rock-warriors-way/)

I’ve also just updated the theme, but to no avail.

Please advice.

Kind regards,

Koen
