Simple Page Specific Sidebars

Page Specific Sidebars adds a checkbox to every page allowing you to choose which pages should have a unique sidebar. Once you enable a page-specific sidebar in the page editor, a widget area will automatically be created for that page and you can customize it as you like. You can also specify whether the plugin replaces your generic sidebar with the page-specific sidebar, or simply adds your page-specific sidebar on to the existing sidebar. Notes Plugin has no built-in styling does not contain native styles; it’s meant to use the styles of your existing theme. This is a minimal plugin, placing function over form. If you would like to extend it, or would like us to extend it in later versions, feel free to contact us, or post feedback in this plugin’s support forum. Usage Simply activate and go. There are a couple filters for customization: $location = apply_filters( 'page_sidebar_location', 'side' ); $priority = apply_filters( 'page_sidebar_priority', 'high' ); These allow you to change the location and priority of the metabox on the “Edit Page” view. $home_slug = apply_filters( 'page-sidebar-homeslug', $home_slug ) Use this filter if your home page slug is different from “home” : NOTE: Any page that has a custom loop pulling in multiple posts will throw this plugin off. For some reason it always outputs the post ID as the last post output on the page. Also, the homepage is most likely the latest blog posts in WordPress so I created a check. It will get the Home page ID and use the Home page ID to get its sidebar. (uses is_frontpage() ) to check.
