What you should do is install this plugin <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/</a></p> <p>Using this plugin you can have individual widgets even on a per post basis with or without the use of additional widget areas. You can put 20 instances of the same widget into a single widget area , and tell each instance when and what to display. So, you would drop 2 instances of the widget at tell one to show up on categories, and tell the other to show up on category posts.</p> <p>Once you install it, at the bottom of each widget , a textbox will appear where you put the logic in,</p> <p>So if you want the same widget to appear on category and on the posts within that category you would add the line below into the input text box where the number 5 (below in the code) is the category id (which you can see in the backend when you edit a category, it will be in the url -- ID=5 ).<br /> <pre><code>is_category(5) || (is_single() &amp;&amp; in_category(5))</code></pre> <p>Excellent walkthrough <a href="http://fourblogger.com/widget-logic-plugin-helps-to-hide-or-display-widgets/" rel="nofollow">http://fourblogger.com/widget-logic-plugin-helps-to-hide-or-display-widgets/</a></p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-areas-categorie-problem#post-81068 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 17:46:07 +0000 browserdaily 81068@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Devin,</p> <p>I just encountered this same issue. It seems that you did not understand what mindup79 was talking about, so perhaps I can make this more clear.</p> <p>If you add an extra widget area for categories, then add custom widgets to that category in the widget editor, that custom sidebar also shows up on the home page. If you select NO for "Display Widget areas for categories on posts of that category as well" the custom sidebars will not appear on the home page, however they also won't appear on the individual posts.</p> <p>So, there is a flaw in the coding for this. You cannot create a custom sidebar for categories and have them show up for each category post without affecting the home page. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-areas-categorie-problem#post-65879 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 16:01:33 +0000 Devin 65879@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I'm going to tag the topic for Kriesi to take a look at as I'm not sure if there is some additional functionality with the widget areas I'm not aware of that could be causing what you are describing.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/extra-widget-areas-categorie-problem#post-64584 Mon, 09 Jul 2012 20:31:08 +0000 mindup79 64584@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Now the "Display Widget areas for categories on posts of that category as well" in disable, if I enable it the system insert a new widget after the 4 news in second column.
