Left Sidebar problem

    Hello,
    I am new to WordPress and I am currently working on my first site using OceanWP.
    I need to make some custom sidebars depending on the subsites so i tried using Custom Sidebars Plugin to do that. The problem is, I cant get it to make a left sidebar, if i set my menu on the left, i don’t get any code with id=”left-sidebar”, only right worked for me, but i thought i could make it work by making it float on the left side. Guess I was wrong because it becomes problematic when someone tries to scale the page and the menu jumps to the right bottom corner. After that i got to know that OceanWP has it’s own Custom Sidebar plugin and i tried to use that but unfortunately i don’t know how to get to the menu depicted on this site:
    https://docs.oceanwp.org/article/348-assign-a-custom-sidebar-to-a-page-post
    If I understand it correctly, such menu should show when I try to edit a page but for me it opens a page with default WP Editor (I am using Elementor though). I thought that maybe the first plugin just doesn’t have the exact same names thats why it could not add the left sidebar but i don’t know how to check and change that and on the OceanWP Custom Sidebar i don’t know where the menu is located.
    I hope to get an answer,
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello,
    The inability to create left sidebars with Custom Sidebars plugin was a problem and i had no idea how to operate OceanWP Custom Sidebar plugin (i just don’t see any plugin menu appearing).
    I decided to continue using right sidebars which i then move to the left using CSS.
    This might be a roundabout way to do so but I solved my problem so this thread could technically be closed.
