"Add Doc" sidebar issue

    I have dynamic widgets set up in my group sidebar. This allows me to show certain widgets for certain groups. However, I’ve noticed once “add new doc” is clicked, all the widgets for every group show in the sidebar. I’m guessing this is because the “add new doc” page doesn’t technically belong to a single group. Is there a way I can change which sidebar is assigned to the “add new docs” page? That would allow me to set up a generic one for “create new docs”.

    (In case anyone stumbles on this thread and is in my situation)

    For a temporary fix I was able to hide the sidebar all together. All my groups are hidden and invite only so it’s important no information is shared between the groups. Below is the css I used. You must replace the “.whatever-the-sidebar-class-is” with your sidebar’s class. It’s not the most ideal solution but it serves it’s purpose.

    .bp-docs-create .whatever-the-sidebar-class-is{
    display:none;
    }

    Hi allisonnance-

    Unfortunately, widget display is controlled by the theme you’re using. I believe you’re using Boss, where the Add New form looks like it’s happening in the group. You might try a related thing that Boone wrote that actually moves group doc bits into the related group: https://github.com/boonebgorges/buddypress-docs-in-group

    I can’t say how it’ll work with Boss, though.

    Best,

    -David

    Thanks but it didn’t work with Boss. It caused me to have two sidebars both of which displayed all of the dynamic group widgets.
