How can I add a side bar? I added a php include to the side bar in the widgets but I don’t see it.

I am trying to use page builder and add my php store in one box and beside it on the left trying to add

The idea is so I can add my store products menu to the left and the store products to the right. I would use widgets but that did not work on my products page. It did work on my contact page.

I would like to add the side bar and widget without having to choose the blog layout. Is this possible? I really need the store menu on the right hand side. this is why I try to use the page builder. This is the instructions that the cart developer gave.

To add the dynamic menu you will need the WordPress executable PHP widget installed.

In your WordPress admin go to Appearance > Widgets, find the PHP code widget and drag that to the sidebar where you want it to appear in the list

Give the widget a title and enter the following code for the accordion menu.

    I tried woo sidebars as mentioned by another admin but only can get on certain pages. Please help me get this working.

    Hi Joseph

    With widgets in your sidebar widget area at Appearance > Widgets, selecting the page template “Default” should display your sidebar.

    If you need to display widgets on a selective basis then WooSidebars or Jetpack Widget Visibility is the way to go.

    I got the side bar to work but how can I get it to stay to the left and up towards the top? It keeps floating around. Also any idea how I can change the color of the font on the menu? Thanks!

    Nicely done. It’s looking stable on my side right now. The CSS looks correct.

    Try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    #secondary a { color: #000 !important; }
#secondary a:hover { color: #FF0000 !important; }

    And swap my colors out for yours.

    Not to my knowledge. Vantage provides the framework for WooCommerce, some basic integration, WooCommerce then takes over the rest. Vantage also has a fixed with content layout, this applies for both the boxed and full-width option.
