Thanks very much!!!

Thanks! I’m sorry I do have one more related question, then I should be done. Do you happen to know what CSS I would use to get the widget sidebar to scroll all the way down to the comment box on my post pages? See this link to see what it is currently doing.

Never mind, I got it all figured out! Thanks very much,

So I have the category specific part working, all I need left is to figure out why the widget content is not displaying. Plese let me know if you see anything. Here is what I’m using in my archives.php file.

<?php if (in_category(‘2’)) : ?>
<?php widgets_on_template(“widgets_on_pages”); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

I appreciate all your help. Thanks,

Jake

Ok, so I was trying to at least get it to work without categorizing it first, and it adds the sidebar correctly based on the css but it doesn’t actually include the content that is supposed to be there. See example here – https://www.newlifebiblestudies.org/category/unlearned/proverbs/

This is the code I used… which implements the shortcode I use in my page here – https://www.newlifebiblestudies.org/unlearnedandignorantmen/.

<?php widgets_on_template(“widgets_on_pages”); ?>

Do you see anything else I’m missing?

Oh thanks I didn’t see that there in the installation! I was thinking something like this might work for the category specific part…

if category = 2
<?php widgets_on_template(“wop_1”); ?>
end if

I’m just not sure of the syntax I would need. Would something like that work?

Ok I found the problem… I was originally trying out the Sermon Browser plugin… this one was still activated so somehow the short code was getting confused as to which plugin to use I guess. Once I deactivated sermon browser it works fine. Thanks for all your help!

Ok yeah that’s what I’m doing, and it just says “no sermons found”. All I have to do is put [sermons id=”454″] in a new post and it should work right? I must be missing something else… if it doens’t work no big deal I was just hoping to have that functionality. Let me know if you have any other ideas as to what might be going wrong. Thanks,

Jake

Thanks for the quick response! Can you tell me how to know the sermon id? I tried using the page ID that I get from clicking on the title, and then I also tried the url slug from the sermon page as well, and neither worked. Is there somewhere you else you get the sermon id?

Also, I would only want to do this if I could keep it category specific (since we have three different blogs on this site that are being sorted out by three parent categories)… if you could let me know if that’s possible, I would appreciate it as well. Thanks!

Thank you very much, that worked out really well. I appreciate all your help!!!

No problem ??

What I want to do is have the text on the top section of the page, to the right of the widget. But the widget is expanding all the way to the end of the page, so even though in my page I have the short code right next to my text, it is bumping the text down beneath the entire widget.

Todd – thank you for the quick response. I tried pasting that into my style.css file but didn’t notice a change. And if I click F12 in IE and select the widget, I still see the widget as expanding to the width of the page. Is there something else that you know of I might need to do in order for the CSS code to work? I haven’t had a ton of experience with CSS so I’m afraid I might be missing something obvious.
