[SOLVED] Can't hide sidebars on individual pages. Works for categories.
 
I cannot seem to hide sidebars for individual pages. I've put the post IDs into the proper place, but the sidebars still load on those pages.

Putting a category ID in the "Don't display on categories" list works fine, and the sidebars are NOT shown on that category's list page.

Problem only exists when trying to hide any sidebar on an individual page.

Has anyone encountered this.

I'm working with wordpress 2.8.4 and Atahualpa 3.42.

Additional NOTE: The page ID IS being inserted into the database: in the wp_options table, there are entries called:
bfa_ata_right_col_pages_exclude and bfa_ata_left_col_pages_exclude which has a value (the page on which I want to exclude it)

But the sidebars are NOT being excluded from THAT page.

you can't hide side bars for POSTS, only for PAGES. so if you create a PAGE called 'tutoring' you can find it's ID and insert that and then on that PAGE the sidebars won't show.

I am also having this issue. I went to a static homepage and a posts page. The sidebars are not showing in the 2 other pages I have set to hide sidebars.

Juggle, all the posts and pages are referenced in wordpress as posts "wp-admin/page.php?action=edit&post=42" This should not be a problem, as the two other instances where it works, are also referenced as posts.

Any help would be appreciated.

What do you have set at ATO->Style & configure SIDEBARS?

RIGHT sidebar: Don't display on Pages: 23,42

Please check to see what you have set at dashboard->settings->reading->front page displays - if it is 'Your latest posts, then page id 23 is NOT your blog page and at ATO->Style & configure SIDEBARS->LEFT sidebar: Display on:

you need to uncheck the box 'Homepage' and 'Front Page'
