Adding a sidebar into certain pages

[Jill Huston]

Hi

Can I add a sidebar into certain pages but not others? For example, I have a section of my website that deals with one set of services. I would like to add a sidebar where I can include a widget navigation for all the services under that set of services. Is this possible?

I know that there is a widget area for a homepage sidebar but I don’t want a sidebar on my homepage.

Many thanks

Jill

You could use a plugin such as Widget Options.

With this plugin you can select widgets to display only on certain pages, so you would add your widget(s) to the page sidebar, then set the widget to display only on the pages you want.

Then on other pages, the widget will not be displayed, and the theme will see the sidebar as being empty, and not show the sidebar.

Thanks again, Andy – that’s great!
