In this tutorial, we will show you how to create a sidebar in Gutenberg. This can be done in two ways: by using the WordPress default theme, or by using a custom theme.
If you want to use the WordPress default theme, then you need to go to the Widgets page in the Appearance section of your WordPress admin panel. From here, you can add or remove widgets from your sidebar. Simply drag and drop the widgets that you want to add to your sidebar into the relevant area.
If you are using a custom theme, then you will need to create a file called sidebar.php in your theme’s directory. This file will contain the code that will output your sidebar content.
The code that you need to add to this file will depend on the structure of your theme. However, a good starting point would be to use the following code:
This code checks if there is an active sidebar called ‘sidebar-1’. If there is, then it will output the content of that sidebar into a div with an id of ‘secondary’ and a class of ‘widget-area’. These classes are used by WordPress themes to style sidebars so it is important that they are included in your code.
Once you have added this code to your sidebar.php file, you need to upload it to your server and refresh your website. You should now see a new sidebar on your website!
