Set sidebar to Custom Post Types in Child Theme

[tstrickland415]

Hello Kleo team,

Somehow the custom sidebars on some of my posts randomly gets reset to my default sidebar, so I’d like to know how to set a specific sidebar for every post of a certain Custom Post Type.

For example, I have a custom post type called “Events”. I also have a custom sidebar for this post type (that I created within the Kleo Theme) which has dynamic info related to each Event post. Normally I’d have to set the Sidebar when I create the post, which is easy but would be much easier and full-proof to do so programmatically in my child theme. What can I add to my single-events.php to set/force the same sidebar for all posts of this post type?

Hello Radu,
I’m replying to this thread beacuse I think I am quite in the same siituation.
I have created a custom post type and made a single-mycpt.php for it, which has been added to Kleo Child.

I would need to have one specific sidebar only on that particular post type, but despite content-aware-sidebars, there seems to be no way to even display any sidebar with said cpt.
I would really appreciate any help. Thanks in advance
