Sidebars Not Showing Up - Subfolder in Atahualpa Folder

Using WP 3.01 and Atahualpa 3.5.3. Right sidebar widgets have been set.

I have a subfolder (/test) in the Atahualpa folder, where I placed a modified version of index.php. If I try to access the /test folder in my browser, I am unable to see the sidebars. Here is the call to get the header information in the /test index.php file:

Code:

<?php         /* get all options: */

# error_reporting(-1);

include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/functions/bfa_get_options.php');

global $bfa_ata;



$left_col ="off";

$left_col2 = "off";

$right_col2 = "on";

$right_col = "on";



get_header(); ?>

What am I missing? Is there something special since the code is in a subfolder?

how are you addressing the test/index.php, something like

HTML Code:

mydomain.com/wordpress/wp-contint/themes/atahualpa353/test/index.php ??

do you have the sidebars turned on in the theme options?

why are you doing this?

Hi Juggledad,

Yes, I am accessing via

Code:

mydomain.com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/atahualpa353/test/index.php

Yes, I have sidebars turned on for all pages in the theme.

The reason I am doing this is to debug why sidebars do not appear for Buddypress. I am using BuddyPress 1.2.6, and BuddyPress Template Pack 1.0.2. There are several threads on this forum about this issue, but there is no solution:

The Buddypress templates files are in a subfolder of Atahualpa;I have edited the buddypress Template files in the Atahualpa theme folder by replacing

Code:

<?php get_header(); ?>

with the ATA version:

Code:

<?php /* get all options: */

include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/functions/bfa_get_options.php');

get_header(); ?>

But, sidebars do not show up. I think the reason behind this issue is that sidebars have an issue with sub-folders like mydomain.com/members/USERNAME or mydomain.com/activity/ , I am guessing Atahualpa needs to know to display sidebars in these sub-pages?

Do you have any ideas or suggestions I should try?

Thank you,

Hi Flynn,

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you,

SupraTT

are you getting anything when you use ../test/index.php? in my tests I get nothing, so I want to know if you get something.

In my case TEMPLATEPATH is not set (add '<?php echo TEMPLATEPATH; ?>' as the first line to see what shows.)

duhhhh, coffee hadn't kicked in.
you can't run the index.php directly by doing the 'mydomain.com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/atahualpa353/test/index.php' because nothing has been set up.

The themes index.php gets called AFTER the wordpress index.php is run.

Thanks Juggledad for that piece of information. I am still trying to figure this out, but not getting anywhere. I'll keep trying.
