Fighting with sidebar menus
Hi,
I'm really struggling with sidebars and menus and telling them apart. A bit of your documentation seems outdated, so I hope you can help me.
I have Sidebars AND Sidebar Menus. I don't know what the difference is when it says "sidebar" in places. And I've tried making many and could not get them to show up anywhere.
I also tried making 2 sidebar menus and having one as the default but one I want to ONLY show on SOME pages. I could not find a way to do that.
I tried duplicating the mini header I have and adding a hamburger to it, but the video for this is outdated, since I only have Navigation as an option. When I chose Navtype and choose my "hidden" menu, it's not working.
All I'd like is for most of my pages to use one sidebar menu, and then SOME of my pages I get to choose a custom sidebar menu for. That's it. i tried watching videos and reading forums, but 2 hours of searching and fighting and I've run out of time.
I renewed my support just for this question...
Thanks in advance for your help

(right now there is only a tiny difference between sidebar menus - I'll fix that after it works, thanks)

Hi,
Sidebar Menu template and (Widget) Sidebars are different things.
Here is a video about Sidebar Menu templates:

Here is a video about widget Sidebars:

What you currently have on the home page is a Sidebar Menu template. It does not have conditions, and it can be either assigned to the Menu Burger element or always be visible, which is set at the moment on your website.
There is no option to assign it to a specific page.
Only Sidebars made with widgets can be assigned to a specific page, but they do not have advanced styling options.
Best regards
