Can’t get custom sidebar to appear on post index

Hello @jforena

I trust all is well!

If a home.php template is used for a custom post type, then please add this custom post type under As Blog Sidebar for selected Post Types. Please see this screenshot:

Let us know how it went!

Cheers,

Thank you for your response! We currently have ‘Posts’ selected under As Sidebar for selected Post Types. The only other option is ‘Pages’ which is not a post type that is applicable for the sidebar in question.

You can view a screenshot here:

Note we are using home.php for the post/blog index because we have a separate home page template. Is there something else we need to do to get the sidebar to appear on the ‘Post Index’?

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. Everything appears to be configured correctly however the problem still persists. I believe it may be related to my theme. I am building a custom theme using the ‘Underscores’ base theme.The sidebar displays correctly on the Post Index when using the WP 2016 theme.

When viewing the Post Index in ‘Sidebar Debug’ mode, I get the following info:

Type 4: Page Archive
Replace sidebars

Type 4: Page Archive
Replacement for “sidebar-1”: -none-

It appears that the sidebar is not getting successfully replaced. home.php is working and recognized as the Post Index template. It’s odd because it is working for all other archives (categories, tags, authors, & date), just not the Post Index.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Could you please let me know if there’s any get_sidebar() function in home.php file?

I mean, if there’s any actual sidebar that can be replaced.
If so, please send me an email to [email protected] using this template:
