Enable Sidebar on Organizer Page

[Joerg]

Hi there,

i need to create a sidebar on the organizer pages. How can i do that? I am currently using a plugin “custom sidebars”. perfect for all other pages on my website except the event calender currently. When i create a new organizer and select a sidebar .. then its just ignoring it. 🙁

and i realy need it. also for the detailed/single event page.

is something needed in the event page template like: <?php get_sidebar(); ?> ?

i hope you can help.

cheers

Hey Joerg,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I’d be happy to help!

You can definitely modify the “default-template.php” view by following our Themer’s Guide to add the file in your theme. You could then do something like https://gist.github.com/BeardedGinger/503878eade46b93dea84 to get the sidebar to display on the Organizer and Single Event pages.

One note though, this snippet won’t be a perfect fit for your theme. You’ll need to determine how your theme builds the full-width vs pages with sidebar views. With the snippet, I’ve provided an additional class that gets added to the event wrapper. You’ll need to use that class ( or determine different if your theme allows) to style the page so the main content and sidebar display side by side as you would like.

I hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi Josh,

well… i created a folder and file inside the themme including the tribe-events/default-template.php
so there is something like a sidebar now at the bottom of the pages but it looks awful and it is not reacting when i change the sidebar. because i have different sidebars. it just shows someting looooong new at the bottom of the pages in there that seems to be something like a sidebar.

i dont know where to change the with of the content page so that the content that appears currently at the bottom of the page as sidebar right to the content + how to enable the correct sidebar. it doesnt makes sence when i have no influence on what is showing in the sidebar. :-/

best
joerg

Hey Joerg,

Thanks for following up with us.

Unfortunately this is a customization request that I can’t dig into more deeply here in the forums. The snippet provided in the previous response is intended to be a starting point to help in figuring out the solution. You’ll need to look into your theme and see how it manages the page structure, sidebar, and layout controls to figure out the best way to integrate with the layout provided.

I apologize that I can’t give you a more direct response but hopefully this will help to get you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks!
