Recent comments/ popular posts missing

  • Resolved dingo_shadow

    I am running wp 2.6.3 and atahualpa theme 2.21
    When you go to the posts page it would put up a recent comments and popular posts notification on the right sidebar above the other widgets.
    Recently this has stopped on my site for no reason.
    I have a test machine running the same site with the same plugins and it is working fine.
    I have re uploaded the theme and wordpress, ran a repair on the database and they still do not show up anymore.
    Any help please

  • Might need to look at your theme’s sidebar.php to figure that out.

    If necessary, post the sidebar.php at https://wordpress.pastebin.com and report the link back here.

    The relevant line in the sidebar.php files

    <?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(1) ) : ?>
    The relevant line in the sidebar2.php files

    <?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(2) ) : ?>

    I’ve looked through the functions directory and cant find any function by that name.
    Found them on the my test site. Copied over but still not working.
    I think I am getting closer though.

    Wonder if the recent comments and popular posts notification or widgets, or are they coded in your sidebar before (outside of) the ‘dynamic_sidebar’ stuff?

    Ok got it all working again by going back to Atahualpa 2.01
    I will do some comparisons of the two versions to see where it broke.
