Can we please add a sidebar? #13
Comments
I don't think the theme should have a sidebar, but the id's of the widget areas could be renamed |
I prefer pages with sidebars. They feel dead-end to me without one. |
Yeah, a page template with a sidebar is good for things like showing latest posts, post archive links, and tags while reading a blog post. It shouldn't be the default, in my opinion, but it should definitely be an option to set a template with a sidebar as the default for blog posts (and/or pages if desired). |
I just switched a test site from Twenty Nineteen to Twenty Twenty, and the footer widgets did not even carry over to the footer. What's up with that? Is it the naming? |
@joyously You are probably right about it being a naming thing. Here we have |
Read the core code. "footer-one" matches "footer", not "sidebar". |
At this point @andersnoren and I do not feel that we have the time to implement a sidebar. Closing the issue. |
One of the worst parts about Twenty Nineteen is that there is no sidebar.
This is especially bad for users with custom widgets that have to switch to the default theme to troubleshoot their site. Because of the way that core reassigns widgets, those widgets end up inactive when the theme is switched back.
And it's time for the default theme to show how to use a sidebar with full width blocks.
