Specify Sidebar for Events Page

[Derek]

Hello, How do I specify what sidebar to show for the events template?

I created a sidebar called “events” and only want that to show on my events page. Here is the code I already have on the template file…

I think the code I need to add is something like this, but I’m not sure how to apply it…
genesis_widget_area( ‘events’, array( ‘before’ => ”, ‘after’ => ”,

Hi Derek,

We can’t help too much with theme-specific functions (you seem to be using Genesis here) but in general terms you could for instance override and customize our default-template.php template and add your call to the events sidebar from there.

On a sort of generic WordPress level you might do this with the dynamic_sidebar() function. If you want or need to use the genesis_sidebar() function you should refer to the documentation provided by the theme vendor for that.

Hope that helps 🙂

Hi I need to do the same thing, but can’t figure it out. My issue has nothing to do with the theme. I just want to add a sidebar to the event details page and not the calendar view of all events. Can you please let me know?

Hi Shimatorabi, can you create a new thread of your own? That would be much appreciated – thanks!

Hi Barry, sorry about that. I created a new thread too.

Sidebar on event details pages

Thank you!

No problem! I’ll go ahead and close this thread (unfortunately we can’t help with very theme-specific situations like you described Derek) but if there’s anything else please don’t hesitate to create new threads as required 🙂
