Lightweight Sidebar Manager

설명

Normally you have a sidebar that appears throughout the website. However, sometimes it is necessary to display a relevant, different sidebar on certain pages on the website. For an example: on WooCommerce pages, a sidebar with related or top seller products would be more relevant than latest comments, blog posts right?

This plugin helps you solve that problem as it allows you to create new sidebars and display them conditionally on certain locations of the website easily. Once the sidebar is created and displayed on pages you like, you can add relevant widgets in it.

Try it out on a free dummy site

Some of the Features:

  1. Create unlimited sidebars
  2. Place them any location your theme has defined (Footer Widgets / Left or Right Sidebar)
  3. Works with any theme
  4. Conditionally display sidebars on specific posts, pages, taxonomies or custom post types
  5. Display sidebars based on user roles

FAQ

Which themes does this work with?

This plugin works with all well coded themes that have sidebar locations defined.

There are many other similar plugins. Why this?

Other plugins we found are heavy with ugly interface, non supported, developed only for specific themes or affecting performance. So we wanted to develop something simple & straightforward so we can recommend it users of our Astra Theme.

It took jut a few moments to figure out how to use this plugin (just follow the instructions), but then it was very easy. And it allows us to personalize our site to a much greater degree than ever before. We use it most in conjunction with Product Filter by WBW plugin because we have many products and many categories--and as a customer navigates our site, we want certain filters to appear on ceratin pages. This Sidebar plugin made that super easy.

One of these simple things Wordpress doesn't offer yet. This plugin works and is easy to use.

The theme I am using to develop my website came with sidebars but they were not dynamic. After testing about 3 sidebar plugins, I was about to give up, then I found this one. It was very easy to use and works perfectly. I would highly recommend this plugin if you are looking for an easy way of incorporating sidebars on your website.

Great idea for a plugin. It’s easy to use and does exactly what it says. The developer does however not respond to bug-reports in a professional way, so I wouldn’t rely on it for critical sites. It works well for testing purposes though.
