Hi Again,

Based on this thread: https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/the-add-listing-pageformatting-sidebars-on-add-listing-page/#post-50866 ,which is marked resolved…

Paolo, I tried everything I could to wrap my little ol’ brain around. I can not seem to get it correct. I installed widget logic, conditional widgets, looked for examples, searched, and I just can not seem to get a different sidebar to show on Add Events page.

I can register and create a “standard” sidebar, just not sure how to do so using the ?listing_type=gd_event.

I understand that this is customization, and if this is more then I should ask here, then I will move it to jobs. It seems like someone else might want a different sidebar depending on if the page is the Add a Listing or Add an Event. I may be wrong :).

Please let me know if I am pushing the limit :), Thanks!

I know this works:

Get https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/

Add your widget to the Add Listing Sidebar.

Then as “widget logic” for the widget you only want to show on the Add Events page, use
```
geodir_get_current_posttype()=='gd_event'
```
That will display that widget only for the Add Events page.

Oh, thanks, very cool!

And for anyone else who may read this, you will just need to add geodir_get_current_posttype()==’gd_event’ in the widget that you just want to show on the Add Listing page.

Thanks again!!!
