Hey Folks,
I would like to know what is the best way to personnalize sidebar menu appearence.
I need your advice : do i have to use CET, child theme or add short CSS ?
For example, if i want adding a frame with background color and border-radius around sidebar or addind icons or list-style, where can i do that ?
May i create alternate sidebars menu than i can choose when i edit page i.e
No sidebar
left sidebar
right sidebar
—> *right personnal sidebar 1*
—> *right personnal sidebar 2*
—> *left personnal sidebar 1*
Thanks for your precious help.
Best regards,
James
Hey James,
For additional styling, you would need CSS. You can create new sidebars under Appearance->Widgets, then you can select to show your sidebar in the Layout menu on each page.

Thanks for your help Rikard.
I added two sidebars :
– 001 SIDEBAR MENU
– 002 SIDEBAR MENU
It’s very convenient to select to show sidebar in the layout menu on each page but i don’t know where i can personnalize CSS for each sidebar ?
I suppose i could use mega menu monster plugin to do it in easy way but i would like avoid to use to much plugins if possible.
Best regards,
James
Hi,
If you want to add your own CSS, then you would have to inspect the element in question in your browser and find the correct selector. You can then add CSS in Quick CSS in the theme options.

Hi Rikard,
I followed your advice and it works quite well thank you, but I cannot format the link of the current page appearing in the menu widget.
I started a topic about this :
Currently the “current page link” appear in black but i would like to change it as i wish (like background color, font size,…).
I know it’s a simple CSS to add but I don’t know to do it.
Can you help me with this?
Best regards,
James
