Portfolio Layout

Hey peterolle,
To have a custom sidebar that only shows on portfolio posts, first create a custom widget area, in this example I named it “portfolio sidebar” and added the text widget:

then ensure that the sidebar i enabled on single post items:

Then add this code to the end of your child theme functions.php file in Appearance ▸ Editor:

add_filter("avf_custom_sidebar", function($custom_sidebar) {
    if(is_single() && get_post_type() === 'portfolio'){
        $custom_sidebar = "portfolio-sidebar"; 
    }
    return $custom_sidebar;
}, 10, 1);

and the sidebar will show only on portfolio posts:

Best regards,
Mike

Hi,
If in the theme settings you are going to have no sidebar as the option for Sidebar On Single Post Entries

but still want a sidebar to show only on portfolio posts, add this code to the end of your child theme functions.php file in Appearance ▸ Editor:

function enable_sidebar_on_portfolio_posts_when_disabled_in_theme_settings($layout, $post_id) {
  if( is_single() && get_post_type() == 'portfolio') {
      $layout['current'] = $layout['sidebar_right'];
      $layout['current']['main'] = 'sidebar_right';
  }
  return $layout;
}
add_filter('avia_layout_filter', 'enable_sidebar_on_portfolio_posts_when_disabled_in_theme_settings', 10, 2);

That would show the Sidebar Pages or Displayed Everywhere widget area:

If you then want a custom portfolio sidebar widget area to show, then follow the steps above.

Best regards,
Mike
