Introduction


There are two sidebars included with StartRight. One appears on the blog archive and single posts and the other appears on pages.


These are widget areas - you can edit within Appearance > Widgets. They are Sidebar (blog archive and posts) and Pages Sidebar.

1. Blog and Individual Post Sidebar - Sidebar Widget Area


Any widgets you drop into this section will appear on the blog archive page as well as an individual post. The demo site includes two widgets that are added via the Jetpack plugin. These are the Blog Subscriptions widget and the Twitter Timeline widget.


Instructions for adding Jetpack are available here.






2. Pages Sidebar



This section contains 3 widgets - the Advanced Sidebar Pages widget and two Text widgets which serve as sidebar features.





Installation of the Advanced Sidebar Pages widget is covered in Step 6 of the install guide.


We're going to focus on the two text widgets. The first is the 'Our Brochure' feature:



This is the default markup:


<p>View our 2016 brochure for an easy to read guide on all of the services offered by us.</p>

<p class="with-icon"><i class="fa  fa-file-pdf-o"></i> <a href="#" class="pdf">Download PDF</a></p>


You can upload a pdf within the Media section of WordPress. Once uploaded it will generate a direct url to the uploaded file. Simply replace the # link above with the full url.




There is also a 'Contact Us' feature. This is the default markup for that widget. You'll see two parts, some text and a button beneath - this is generated by the 'button' class on the link.


<p>Any questions or comments? We'd love to help. Just call us on 123 567 890 between 9am and 6pm, Mon-Fri EST.</p>

<p><a href="#" class="button">Contact Us</a></p>


Like above, just replace the # in the link above with the full path to your contact us page, including the http:// bit.
