Hi,
Whilst placing a Layout Builder widget on a Custom Sidebar(used Custom Sidebars plugin), I can create a nice layout. After pressing done in Layout Builder and saving the widget, the sidebar shows nicely on my page.
However when I return to the Widget Area (Under Appearance) and selecting the Layout Builder again because I want to edit the current layout, it shows me only an empty layout in the Layout Builder. So the page layout seems to be gone. It is still showing on the live page, but I seem unable to edit it anymore.
If I try again it does replace the earlier layout but again I cannot edit the content after first creating it.
As you can see on: wp2 .windmillp2p. nl/ ?page_id=48 (added some spaces)
The right sidebar layout shows up nicely as created in Layout Builder. I used the following custom CSS from another post on this forum to be able to use same button sizes:
.videobutton a {
width: 100%;
height: 20px;
}
Can you please help as the Layout Builder gives me the right tools to fill the sidebar and still be able to use some custom elements which are not theme related.
Kind regards,
Erik
Update:
It seems to be related to the plugin Custom Sidebars; if I use Layout Builder on the standard sidebar it does remember the page layout when trying to edit it again.
Is there a way around this? Basically I want to be able to have different sidebars on different pages.
Hi ErikNL
Thanks for reaching out. Could you perhaps try the Layout Builder with two other plugins:
1. Jetpack Widget Visibility:

or
2. WooSidebars

Hopefully one of the above will get the job done. Let us know how you come along.
Thanks
That seems to work, thanks for the solution!
Super :) Glad to hear that helped.
All the best.
