Sidebars not working

    Hi there!

    Undoubtedly I must be doing something wrong. But I just can’t change anything on sidebars. I tried the empty text widget trick to clear the “call to action” section at the bottom, but it just kept there… No way to erase or even customize that area. Any ideas?

    I tried deactivating plugins, so as to make sure none of them was causing any issue, but nothing changed.

    I’d deeply appreciate any help with this.

    Hmm. Adding anything to the page bottom widget area should remove the sample widget. If you want to go nuclear on it, you could edit sidebar-pagebottom.php. Or even easier, you can set this line in functions.php:
    'sample_widgets' => true,

    to this:
    'sample_widgets' => false,

    Thanks for the answer!

    I’m gonna try and let you know.

    hi,
    I just installed a proud new own server last week.
    I switched from joomla to wordpress with flat bootstrap theme !
    I’m very satisfied … but I have two problems :
    1/ I wanted to erase “call for action” … your proposal was fine !
    2/ I wanted to add widgets in other sidebars … excepted the right sidebar, no other one can be setup ..
    Any Idea ?
    Yours,
    Denis

    Hi. The above code will remove the sample widgets from the “Page Bottom” widget area. That should only turn off the sample widgets. You should still be able to add any widget you want to the Page Bottom (or Page Top) widget area. Try a simple Text widget first with just a sentence or two in it.
