ACF and custom sidebars
This allows you to create multiple pages all with different sidebar content
4 steps are required:
- Install a plugin called Advanced Custom Fields (click link to find out more)
- Activate the plugin
- Download this json file and navigate to Custom Fields > Tools > “Import Field Groups” to import this file
- Then, choose either of these 2 special templates when creating a new page:
-
- ACF PLUGIN ONLY Full feature image + custom sidebar
- ACF PLUGIN ONLY Boxed feature image + custom sidebar (this page has this template selected)
These extra options only show if you follow the steps above
! Don’t see this field? Try one of the following:
- Make sure the template you have selected is either one of the 2 in step 4 above.
- Click refresh if you still do not see it after making sure your page is using one of the 2 templates in step 4
- Make sure you have the latest version of WordPress and the latest version of ACF plugin
- Still don’t see it? Turn off all your Plugins except the ACF plugin and find the Plugin that is stopping the ACF plugin from working.
! If you use these templates without installing the ACF plugin, then the templates above in step 4 will appear broken
