   I've created a unique sidebar for a page, but content for the global sidebar still appears in it. How do I keep the general sidebar content out of unique sidebars?

   Hi,

   Go to Appearance > Widget and supply the newly create unique sidebars with its own widgets.

   There were 3 widgets in it already. My point is that the "Displayed Everywhere" widgets are still appearing in the unique sidebar. I have 3 widgets in the sidebar, but 6 are appearing.

   I need to know how to keep "Displayed Everywhere" widgets from appearing in unique sidebars.

   The "Displayed Everywhere" sidebar will be displayed on all pages by default. You can try to change the code in sidebar.php though - open up the file and replace:

   // general pages sidebars
   					if ($avia_config['currently_viewing'] == 'page' && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Pages') ) : $default_sidebar = false; endif;

   with:

   // general pages sidebars
   		if ($avia_config['currently_viewing'] == 'page' && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Pages') ) {
   			$default_sidebar = false;
   			$page_sidebar = true;
   		}

   and:

   if (function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && $avia_config['currently_viewing'] != 'shop_single' && dynamic_sidebar('Displayed Everywhere')) : $default_sidebar = false; endif;

   with:

   if (function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && $avia_config['currently_viewing'] != 'shop_single' && !empty($page_sidebar) && dynamic_sidebar('Displayed Everywhere')) : $default_sidebar = false; endif;

   Hi heatherpaige,

   Additionally, you can look into using a plugin like: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic-visual/

   Which will allow you to easily use the wordpress conditional tags to specify where widgets should be displayed.

   I tried this work around but it didn't fix the problem. I'm having the same issue. I created a new sidebar and need certain information to display in that sidebar on the selected page.... however all of the other widgets from the "Page Sidebar" is seen as well. Please help fix this error.

   In this case delete following code in sidebar.php:

   $custom_widget_area = avia_check_custom_widget('page');
   
   					//unique Page sidebars:
   					if (function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Page: '.$custom_widget_area) ) : $default_sidebar = false; endif;

   and replace:

   // general pages sidebars
   					if ($avia_config['currently_viewing'] == 'page' && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Pages') ) : $default_sidebar = false; endif;

   with:

   $custom_widget_area = avia_check_custom_widget('page');
   
   //unique Page sidebars:
   if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Page: '.$custom_widget_area) ) {
   	$default_sidebar = false;
   	$page_sidebar = true;
   }
   
   // general pages sidebars
   if ($avia_config['currently_viewing'] == 'page' && empty($page_sidebar) && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Pages') ) : $default_sidebar = false; endif;
