How Can I Add a Sidebar to the Blog Posts Page?

[cameronvegas]

How can I insert a sidebar into the page that contains all posts?  The functionality to set the page template as “sidebar right/sidebar left” disappears once I designate the blog page as the “Posts Page”.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, please go to your hosting file manager or ftp and find the index.php inside of the theme folder, copy the file and paste it inside the child theme folder, now edit it and place the following code, depending on what sidebar template you want:

For left sidebar

COPY CODE

<?php
//create left sidebar template
kleo_switch_layout( 'left' );
?>

For right sidebar

COPY CODE

<?php
//create right sidebar template
kleo_switch_layout( 'right' );
?>

Check out the screenshots please 🙂
