SIdebars wont show up
www.phocusmag.com
I've stuck videos in them i've stuck widgets in them..nothing will pop up...i know im going to feel stupid when someone posts how to fix this but right now i think somethings wrong. Also I need to fix the padding or spacing inbetween my widgets in the header..?( everytime I resize the youtube video the video inches away from the slideshow) where would I got to fix it and how? |
what version of Atahualpa and wp?
What options do you have set for sidebars? (see ato->Style & configure SIDEBARS) |
Atahualpa 3.5.3
wordpress 3.0 I've just selected all the options...where my "categories" on the right hand side are viewable is that my inner side bar or my outer? In any case how would I just change the color of the whole side bar or cell that my widgets will go in so it will be easier to differentiate from the center or the main body of the site and why isn't anything on the left side showing up..? |
Also what are the alignment setting for the widgets in the header?
|
First of all how many sidebars to you want and where? If you want one sidebar on the left and one on the right set the Right Outer and Left Outer to show on the pages you like. Then put widgets in them for whatever you want.
If looks like you have the Left Inner turned on with no widgets in it. There are default items that will show in some sidebars when you have not put any widgets in them. Once you add a widget those defaults go away and all you have to do is add, for instance, the categories widget. That is how most set up the sidebar. That is to not rely on the default "widgets". |

The problem you are running into is that the sidebars cannot go the full height. The only way I can think of (and I haven't tested) is to:
Here is a screen shot that gives you an "idea" of what I am talking about as this is a rather complex layout. This whole thing wold be a lot easier if you didn't try to go full height on the sidebars. As you can see this is the kind of stuff that's pretty hard to describe clearly. But if you want to proceed I would get real familiar with "New Widget Areas" |

Yes you would be putting a widget area inside a widget area and as I said I haven't tested. The two celled widget area I suggested putting into the center widget area is where I would put the vid and slide show as those two cells would be side by side. You can use code to size the widget areas. This is not something I can write a step by step on as it is untested and may require tweaking along the way. I would just start creating and if it looks like it isn't working just delete the widget areas. Also remember that this non-standard design may slow things down a bit.

I don't want any of the options available in the Left Sidebar and Right Sidebar in Style and Configure Sidebars. When I go to add the widgets I want to the sidebars under "widgets" they don't display.
How can I have my sidebars show the content I want them to show - most of which is not an option in the theme? |
