    I can make this show a ‘select a sidebar’ on the edit page of my single portfolio page, but the sidebar does not appear on the page or in the code. I’ve tried all 3 methods. I’m using the minimum pro theme as my starting point. I’ve tried it selecting a simple sidebar and the default sidebar.

    I”m also using your taxonomy title code, but i believe this only affects the archive page.

    any thoughts? thanks

      Send me a copy of your theme with the code in it please. Do you want a custom coded sidebar or use of the simple sidebars?

      I assume you have removed the code which forces the full width layout?
