Custom sidebar not appearing – assigning to individual page

Hi,

I’d be grateful if you could point me in the right direction as to what is wrong!

I’ve assigned a test sidebar to a specific page but the standard primary sidebar appears.

I’ve used the plugin as a go to plugin before and come to use it now on a new build. I’m using WordPress 4.9.8, and roots sage 9 starter theme. It happens on localhost (MAMP PRO) and stage site – both on PHP 7. I’ve disabled other plugins but not finding any conflicts.

Steps:
1. installed the custom sidebars plugin
2. created a test sidebar
3. went to a page, and assigned new test sidebar as the replacement
4. view the same page to see that the sidebar is still showing default primary sidebar

Functions code:

/**
* Register sidebars
*/
add_action(‘widgets_init’, function () {
$config = [
‘before_widget’ => ‘<section class=”widget %1$s %2$s”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘</section>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h3>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’
];
register_sidebar([
‘name’ => __(‘Primary’, ‘sage’),
‘id’ => ‘sidebar-primary’
] + $config);
register_sidebar([
‘name’ => __(‘Footer’, ‘sage’),
‘id’ => ‘sidebar-footer’
] + $config);
});

Sidebar template code:

dynamic_sidebar(‘sidebar-primary’)

Thanks
