## Beskrivelse

Designed for simplicity and flexibility, Simple Page Sidebars gives WordPress users,
designers, and developers the ability to assign custom sidebars to individual pages–
without making any template changes. Existing sidebars can also be assigned in quick
edit and bulk edit modes, helping save you time.

In contrast to some of the more complicated plugins available, Simple Page Sidebars
aims for basic, core-like functionality and integration that’s easy to use without
polluting your admin panel. And due to the way sidebars are saved, it utilizes built-
in WordPress caching, so your site won’t be bogged down with additional queries.

Simple Page Sidebars also ships with a “Widget Area” widget for pulling all the 
widgets from one sidebar into another.

### Benefits

 * No more site-wide, generic sidebars. Each page (or section) can have its own 
   widgets.
 * Complete control over the names of your custom sidebars.
 * Assign the same sidebar to multiple pages.
 * Modify a page’s sidebar without creating an unnecessary revision.

### Advanced Usage

If you want to assign custom sidebars to archive pages or replace multiple sidebars
per page, this plugin likely won’t be the best solution. However it’s flexible enough
to handle a wide range of page-based use cases. It can even be configured to work
with Custom Post Types by adding a couple lines of code:

    ```
    function myprefix_init() {
        add_post_type_support( '{{post_type}}', 'simple-page-sidebars' );
    }
    add_action( 'init', 'myprefix_init' );
    ```

### Notes

### Custom Loops

If your page has any custom loops or queries, they need to be followed by `wp_reset_query()`,
otherwise the global `$post` variable will no longer reference the correct post 
and by the time the sidebar is displayed, Simple Page Sidebars won’t know which 
page is being viewed, possibly leading to an unexpected sidebar being displayed.

### Theme Sidebars

Some themes register different sidebars for their page templates, which means there
isn’t a default sidebar that can be replaced. To use Simple Page Sidebars in this
instance, you can create a child theme and force page templates with custom sidebars
to use the default sidebar.

## Skærmbilleder

 * [[
 * Simply create a new sidebar when editing a page.
 * [[
 * The new sidebar shows up on the widget panel. Notice the new “Widget Area” widget
   for including other widget areas.
 * [[
 * Bulk edit in action. Easily assign a sidebar to multiple pages. (Quick edit works,
   too!)

## Installation

Installing Simple Page Sidebars is just like installing most other plugins. [Check out the codex](https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Installing_Plugins)
if you have any questions.

### Setup

After installation, go to the Reading options panel (the Reading link under Settings)
and choose which of your registered sidebars is the default sidebar.

## FAQ

### Why is the default sidebar still showing after I’ve created a custom sidebar for a page?

If you haven’t added any widgets to your new custom sidebar, the default sidebar
will continue to display. If you really want a blank sidebar, try adding an empty
text widget.

### How do I give my blog a different sidebar?

We recommend that you set your blog to use the default sidebar and create custom
sidebars for pages (including the front/homepage). That way your blog page and posts
all have the same sidebar.

However, if you defined a page for your posts in the Reading settings panel and 
assigned a custom sidebar to that page, that will work, too.

### Can I hide the “Sidebar” column on the Pages screen in the admin panel?

Yes, just click the “Screen Options” tab in the upper right corner of your screen
and uncheck the “Sidebar” option.

Update: Wrote to the developer, he answered quickly. The issue we are seeing appears
not to be with Simple Page Sidebars but rather with WordPress 5.6 Core instead. 
See the ticket where others are having the same issue. https://core.trac.wordpress.
org/ticket/52073 Absolutely awesome plugin up to 5.5.3. Unfortunately, it no longer
works with the latest version of WordPress as of this review (5.6) on 1/8/2021. 
Hopefully, the developer(s) will have time to upgrade the plugin. In the meantime,
those who want to continue to use the plugin will need to downgrade their website
to an earlier version. You can use a free plugin called WP Downgrade to do this 
but it’s a bandaid.

Just wanted to say, that even though the developer is super busy and may not have
updated the plugin version specifically for latest WP version, it still works flawlessly.
This is a great example of simple coding done right. Nothing that isn’t needed, 
it just simply works. 🙂

This is simple and works great, and no ads! Thank you! Other sidebar plugins put
huge, ugly ads right in the middle of the Widgets screen (Custom Sidebars by WPMU-
Dev).

I can’t find a way to ask a question so I will ask it here. Simple sidebars is awesome…
until yesterday when it stopped working for me. Running Wordpress 4.8. Added a new
webpage, entered a new sidebar name and hit update. Added text to the new sidebar
and updated. Here’s the rub. When I try to edit the text for this particular sidebar,
it returns me to the Widget Text page. I’m caught in an endless loop. This now occurs
with all the sidebars that I have created. I’m stumped…can anyone help? Sorry to
put this in the reviews but I found no way to post in the support form.
